Today we had the Alpine days 5k. Giot there at like 6:30 and went to warm up. Warmed up a little less then 2 miles and then did some strides. Went over to the line and we had a delay while we were sitting on the line. Did another couple strides and then we toed the line. Ryan started us and we were off. Kaleb sprinted to the front which I thought was kindof funny but he beat me. I stayed back with trevor and steven for the first 1/2 mile and then they fell back so I went and caught up to litttle warner and they at about the mile mark I was 20-30 feet behind kaleb and craik and justin. Zack and seth had taken off. I moved up a little bit and dropped the gap to about 15 feet. When we got to the cemetary hill Craik and Kaleb pulled away hard. I caught craik on the down hill and then we went for kaleb. We were running together for like the last 1/2 mile until they started pulling away. With about 100 left I tried to kick with everythning I had left but Kaleb and Craik beat me by like 5 seconds. Its a real bummer becasue now I wont be on the grass relays team most likely. Cooled down 5 miles in 3 different little runs.
I hit 68 miles this week so thats cool.
