Shawnee Heights meet today. We showed up and it was sprinkling. We warmed up for a mile and changed into our spikes. I was leading off. As I toed the line I looked around and saw that there were only three other teams, with one of them being our B-team. Anyways, the gun went off and I moved into first. I wasn't quite sure of the pace I was running because there wasn't anyone around me, I didn't have a watch, and I haven't ran and 8 in forever. I came around the 300 and heard 46 so I pushed a little and came through 400 in 61. The next 200m consisted of rain bombarding my eyes and heavy wind pushing me back. On the curve I pushed a little and then kicked it in. 2:04 was my split but I know I can do a lot better. We ended up winning with a 8:26 and set the meet record by 29 seconds. I cooled down for 1.37 and watched the mile before the meet got cancelled. When we got back to the school the sun came out... The Long-D crew then went back to Pierce's and had a smash bros tourney.
