Total Distance
2.00

Half mile warm up, then stretching then I lined up for the boys 400. I was in Heat 2 again with Gavin. I wanted to win my race again but I didn't. When the gun went off, I started out slower than I usually do so that way I don't die on the final stretch like I usually do. Going past the first turn I was in 4th place but I was on the inside lane so I was expecting to catch the other people. But I was going around the curve the same speed as them. So going down the final curve they got there in front of my and I came in 4th place:( with a time of 60 seconds flat, so my placing was off and my time was slower! Then I did a lap with Gavin then we lined up for the 800. My goal for the 800 was to break 2:40 and not be totally wiped out with that time. I start out kind of fast, with a 78 second first lap in a group with Gavin and Sam Hafen. Along the final stretch Gavin and Sam both out kicked my but I had a time of 2:36 so I stayed consistent between both laps and I was not tired at all after that. Then I did another lap before the 4x400. Dakota went first, then me, then Caden then Sam. Dakota got us out into 2nd place and I held on gaining some ground on the first place team, I gained about 20 of the 50 meters. Then Caden and Sam just stayed that distance. Overall that race was good and our team went pretty slow, but we weren't last!
