We did the Dream Mile and a Half today, and it was pretty good. From the start I could tell my legs were pretty tired, both from camp last week and not eating very much yesterday. We started out at a solid pace, I just tried to settle in next to Thom. So Ryan was in the front, then me and Thom, then I think Michael and Austin. We came through the mile at 5:35, and I tossed in a surge because the pace was getting a little slow. Thom surged with me so that was good. At the base of airport Thom settled in behind me and I felt strong to just power up the hill and it wasn't too bad. I ended up 2nd behind Ryan (or I guess technically 3rd behind Connor, but he did it after us because he woke up late) with an 8:40. I matched my PR, so I'll take it considering everything last week. Then Ryan, Kobe and I went to the Heaps for a drink and Ryan looked like he was about to faint and I think his blood sugar was low so we made him drink some chocolate milk and he was able to finish out the miles.

Shout out to Mama Heaps for letting us get water and blackberries and such.
