Premeet for the mile, 2x400m. I hit 64 and 63, and my legs feel good. I just need to get in the right mindset and not be focused on any outcome. Yes, I have goals, but I need to focus on the moment in the race to do what I can control, and not worry about anything else. I know I am capable of getting state in the mile and 800 tomorrow, I just need to be there mentally in order to do it. Shoutout to those who raced today, whether it was a good race or not, and whether it was an end to the season or not, you're out there doing it, and giving it all you got. That's something to be proud of.

Region today. I did the mile first, so I'll start there. I warmed up, and got ready to go. I was seeded 6th behind Justin, Jamison, Adam Wood, Adam Jensen, and Thom. We went out and Thom was leading, took us through in 65. Idk what the rest of my splits were. I just tried to hang on to the lead pack for the next two laps then kill it the last lap. The last lap I kicked it in and had a very strong finish, I wish I knew for sure what that split was. I finished third behind Jamison and Justin with a 7 second altitude PR (4:22.44), also beating my time from arcadia so that was sick. Also I didn't have any salt today because I ran out of lemonade drink mix and no way am I drinking straight salt water, so recovering from the mile was freaking rough, I wanted to die for a good 20 minutes. It was miserable. Threw up a couple times. Then I dragged myself out of my pitiful state of existence to attempt to qualify in the 800m. Led the first lap in 58, and tried my best to hold it, but died hardcore. Finish time was 2:03.21. After I crossed the finish line I could barely keep my eyes open, I straight up almost passed out. Jamie and Caleb had to practically carry me away. Gotta stay on top of that salt intake. But all in all I'm way happy with qualifying for state in the mile, that eases a lot of worries. Shoutout to everyone who raced today, y'all killed it!

Update: My splits were 64,67,68,62.

Speed in the morning with Connor, 3x(400m @mile pace, 100m jog, 200m "kick", 4 min rest) splits were 68,29,63,28,62,28. The 400s were a little rough pacing wise but it was a good workout and shoutout to Connor for doing it with me. Shoutout to Zack and Tyler for joining us up the canyon tonight for quite the adventure.
