the dreaded update

May 09, 2005 18:52


I figured since everyone keeps tellin me to update i prolly should....its been over a month and alot has happend. so heads up on it might be a long post... well track ended for me earlier than i wanted it to... i didnt make it out of regionals. i ran my ass off and nothing more that i can ask from my body and myself. i qualifed for regionals in 2 events the mile and the 800.  i ended up running my 2 fastest times... i was seeded 10th in the mile and came in 7th with a 4:30 (hardest region for the mile may i remind you) i ran a good race even splits of 62,70,70,68 so not bad i was happy with that. in the 800 i was seeded like 11th or 12th and was in the slow heat so basically no shot at going to state.... or at least it seemed so on paper. i ended up missing state by not even a second... and i know exactly where that second was at... i went to pass the leader on the backstretch and let up and decided to just outkick him with 100m which i did end up doing but i had way to much left. but just means training is starting early for xc. speaking of which i got some really crappy news earlier last week... we had a xc meeting and coach nelson has been telling me for the past 6months that hes not going to retire until after i graduate and out of nowhere at the meeting he says that hes not going to be coaching next yr..... so the search for a new coach has already began...anyways lifes been good i guess you could say full of ups and downs but no one ever said it was easy. ive just been noticing alot of stuff lately seen old friends drift apart and others come back.... strange lol.... i did get some good news though a friend of mine in N.C. is getting married congrats but i get to go up and visit which will be nice to go and see old friends and visit my old neighborhood. itll be a nice little get away up there before i go up there for running camp over the summer.... well i will update with more later. oooh yah if anyone wants to hang out cause i kno during track i didnt have as much time to hang out just call or i/m me. got free time now... well im out
