Prelims & Finals (:

This last Monday we had our second to last track meet at Kings. It was prelims. The only race I ran at this meet was the 800, because all my other events I ran on Wednesday. The 800 race began with a bang and we took off. This one girl from Granite Falls who is super fast was in front of me the entire time. Last year during the track season she beat me with converse on! She's just naturally fast i guess. I took second place in the 800 race. On Wednesday we returned to Kings to finish up the season with Finals as our last meet. This meet I ran the 1600 and the 1 by 400 meter relay. The first race I ran was the 1600. The gun went off and I was right behind that one girl I told you about from Granite Falls who is SUPER fast. Then the second lap came and I slowly started to fall further and further behind her. By the middle of the 3rd lap I was starting to feel the tiredness kick in, but i kept going and ending the race with a 4 second personal record of the season(: I was pretty happy! My time was 5:58. Then our relay came next, Anna and I had a good hand off. I was a little scared that we were gonna mess up so I'm glad we didn't. Anna Handed off to Lindsey, then Sarah ran anchor and we finished in 3rd. I'm glad track is over, it seemed like a really long season, but I'm glad I did it.
