So this was a pretty big race. 25 teams were there I think. I can honestly say I didn't get nervous at all until I got to the race and even then I wasn't very nervous, so that was good. Warmed up about 1.5ish miles then did drills and waited around for quite awhile bc they were behind schedule. I was doing the second leg (of a 5 person relay) so I went right after Guppy who did the first leg and got me a solid 5th place start. I started out kind of fast but I was feeling good. First lap was pretty smooth and felt really fast, second lap I started dragging a bit, but it still turned out okay and I passed a girl so we were now in fourth. The "gauntlet" the second time around got me, and looking back I should have tried a bit harder on that, but I didn't slow too much the second mile and I felt like I had a good enough race, especially cuz i didn't even trip over any hay bales... #win. Also the rest of our relay team all pulled out some great times and we ended up 5th overall and got a trophy! Shoutout to them for killing it.

*as a side-note I'm not sure of the exact length of the course because some people were say it was like 2.1 or something, but i don't really know so I'm just gonna go with 2.
