This past weekend we raced at the Frisco Invitational. I was really excited for this meet for two reasons. First, we haven't been to this meet before so I was looking forward to the new meet and getting the opportunity to race some new competition. Second, we ran in a dual meet the week before and I was really happy with my 800 race so this week I was excited to see where I was at in my fitness and how I would run in the other distances. This weekend I ran the 3200, 1600, and I was on the 4x4. In both the two mile & mile I was really focusing on the fist half of the race. My plan was to race shock both races and I knew exactly what splits I needed to run to accomplish that. In the 2 mile I went out in exactly the time I wanted for the first mile and after that I just tried to finish as fast as I could. I ended up running 10:47 which I was happy with. In the mile I went out fast again which was the plan & I ran 5:05. This wasn't what I hoped to run but I was just happy that I made my splits for the first couple laps. Lastly, in the 4x4 I was the anchor leg and ran a 62. The team ended up getting 2nd. It was a super close race at the end & this was probably one of the most fun races I've been in. Overall, I was really pleased with my races this past weekend and it was a good way to show me where I'm at in my fitness and the work that still needs to be done.     


Also, special shoutout to the varsity girls 4x100 team that broke the school record this weekend!! Big congrats to them, school records are a big deal!! 
As a team the Varsity Girls took home first place!! Individual success is awesome, but team success means so much more to me. Saturday definitely made me proud to call myself a Hebron Hawk. I am so excited that track is back & I'm looking forward to the big things to come!!
