Easy running and some strides I did some elongated strides at near 400m distance to get my legs moving and test to see if 5k pace still felt comfortable. It did. It felt VERY comfortable. That is something I have tried to work on this season, because in the past I have struggled being able to comfortably run my race paces. This season I have put time into doing workouts where I run my race pace as smoothly as possible, and it has paid off. Anyways my coach only allowed me to do 2-3 miles today to ensure a great race tomorrow, which will bring my confidence back up. My goal will be to win but I know in our region you're up against top notch 3a competition always, so I can always expect a great challenge. My time goal will be a 16: 10 which will better my last year time by about 45 seconds, which will put me into a great position to reach my time goal for state.
