Montana State Invite today! It was freaking cold and it snowed during the whole race. We warmed up and I felt pretty tight and nervous, but I just kinda brushed it off. Splits were 5:23, 5:42, 5:41, 5:40, 5:25. Nate said to chill for the first 2 or 3 miles then started picking people off in mile 4, and go for broke in mile 5. I did that, and I'm happy with how it went. I had more in the tank, and I definitely could've pushed harder in the middle miles. Very good first 8k. Happy but not satisfied.

We also took first as a team so that was super sick!!!

Nice job Collin! In my personal experience unless you race really badly the last mile of an 8k ends up being quick because you conserve more energy than you think since it's a 5 mile race. Now you just have to work on strength and get those middle miles in the 5:20's too!
