9-23 The 4th battle: LCC, my achilles heel

Well, this was probably my worst race of the year. I ran the 5k course in a time of 20:06 about. It was pretty dissapointing. It did not feel very well at all. The lack of sleep I had last week could not have helped. I also had a slight cold, I think. My first 1k was at about 3:45. My first mile was 6:03. My 3k time was actually the same as Molalla, 11:35. My 2 mile time was about 12:23. It kind of fell apart from there, with all of the hills that followed. I didn't really like running three laps. It was too much of the same thing. The last two hills really killed me. I didn't have a lot of drive at the end for this one. That was probably because of me being tired. I need to make sure I get more sleep this week and for the rest of the year. Not a very good race for me. About 10 seconds faster than this meet last year, although if it was the exact same course as last year I probably would have ran about 30-45 seconds faster.
