So Region. Got to the park, chilled for a bit, and then warmed up a mile and did drills and stuff. Started off and right from the beginning it was quick. First mile was definitely too fast, at a 5:57 or something like that. I wish I could say I kept that pace up for the rest of the race, but I did not... Next couple miles were significantly slower. Anyway, did not have the best kick unfortunately, but finished with an 18:47 which isn't too terrible. I tried but for some reason I couldn't get my mental game together for this one. I feel like if I had been more positive I could have had a lot better of a race. Hopefully for state I can be a lot more positive and push myself more than I did. But I'm super super proud of my team because even with my less-than-wonderful performance they all pulled it together and we are going to state :)
Special shoutout to Guppy for taking second (she is absolutely ridiculous) and shoutout to Mario for an INSANE PR.
Also shoutout to Mama Hinckley for the hospitality. She's the best.
