The Race didn't go as I wanted. I was hoping to run around 24:20 but when I showed up to the start line there was 2 kenyans who had run fast and Ruben. Only prize money for the top 3. So I decided to go for top 3 and in the process we hit the mile in 4:28 and from there I was done because thats the fastest mile I have run sine outdoor track when I was sharp. The good thing from this race was the 4:28 didn't feel like I was going all out. Other then that the race was basically a workout to just hang on and finish with a decent time which I kind of did.
Also the 8x800 workout gave me a lot of confidence goinig into club nationals because all season i had been really struggling with stuff under 5 minute pace. So im starting to turn that corner where im finally getting some speed back into these legs.
