AM: Last night I was worried I pulled my calf at the end of the run. So I iced it and this morning it felt better but it still didn't feel right so for the first time in my life I'm taking advice from Kamryn... :) I did 4 miles with the team including some 380ish meter repeats and some weird spartan playground course thing that my team won. Then after Kamryn told me to not run any more and just ice so that tomorrow it will be perfectly healed (hopefully) and then I can help my team 4 peat the Washington relay! The Washington Fair Half-Marathon relay is an important part of my history.
Freshman Year: Me and a bunch of other freshman (and one 7th grader at the time) made a relay team. Meanwhile all the seniors on the varsity XC team made a team. Everyone expected them to win. I was the last leg and I was running the 10k and I got the baton about a minute and a half after Josh Mccombs (Who was thought of as the fastest on the team at that time) I caught him at the halfway point and then he stuck with me. Long story short I beat him by .01 seconds.
Sophmore Year: Our same team went against Hurricane's local elite road runners. Once again I grabbed the "baton" about a minute behind. I caught up to him at the halfway point once againg except for this time the guy didn't stick with me and we ended up winning by over 2 minutes.
Junior Year: I grab the "baton" probably a minute ahead of Karl Wilcock (Hurricane High School's school record holder in the 800m-1:55, 1600m-4:12, and 3200m-9:22) Well I finished almost 2 minutes before hime, so today I still brag about the day I beat Karl Wilcock! (Although I know he was not in his prime, and taking the race as a fun run with his family...I still like to brag :) ). And that is my history of the Washington Fair Half-Marathon Relay. :)
