I’m behind in my blogging!
I got a PR in the 3000m at the Jack Johnson Invitational at the
University of Minnesota indoor track, and I haven’t even written about it. So here is my brief recap: Meghan and I
decided to do our annual 3k race at the Jack Johnson meet as a tune-up for the
U.S. cross country championships. I’ve
been feeling great in my track work-outs, so I was excited to see what I could
do in a race. We trained through the
week without tapering, but I still felt ready to go the day of the race. The Jack Johnson is always fun – there are a
lot of Minnesota track alumni, my parents and
grandparents are able to come cheer, the track officials are
familiar. Meghan and I decided to go out
at 9:20 pace, with the hope of switching off leading every 400m. I took the first 400m, Meghan took the
second, but wasn’t feeling in top form, so I lead the rest of the race for a
time of 9:19. Just a little PR, but I’m
excited to know I could run faster with some tapering and a more competitive
field.
