...Which is a great reason why you (I) should not go into a race with super high expectations, especially this early on. Leading up to tonight's 1500m at the Sun Angel Track Classic at Arizona State University, I was told all week that this was going to be a fast one. Apparently there was a rabbit organized and the field looked pretty stacked.
Then, I get to the track and I am told there is no rabbit. Ok, no problem, it seemed like there were a couple of girls who might want to take it out fast. Then, the gun goes off and we get to the 800m at 2:20. Again!!! (See my last post). I think, ok, refocus and just race. I was in the top 2 at 200m to go and then didn't have a second gear to bring it home this time. I was 4th in 4:19.
Afterwards, I felt like I could run another one. :S
I know I'm in the best shape of my life so I just have to be patient.
The next one will be the Payton Jordan Invitational at Stanford University on April 28th. People usually like to run fast there ;)
