Anna Elkin Race Report: Tune Up Before Districts!


Anna Elkin Racing last weekend at Texas Relays

Race Report By: Anna Elkin 

This past Thursday I raced at the Marcus Invitational. Because district is in less than a week we decided that I was just going to race the 800. Even though I wasn't running my normal events I really tried to treat this like the district meet so that I could mentally prepare myself for next week. Going into the race I honestly just wanted to run as fast as I could and then see where I stack up against the other girls. I went out in around 65 which was a little slower than I hoped and I ended up running 2:17 placing 2nd. This wasn't exactly the result I wanted but it was still a good race. Even though the 800 isn't the most fun race, it was fun to run something different than normal. Overall as a team there were some really good performances by the sprinters and special shoutout to the girls 4x4 team for running really fast!! It's kind of crazy think that I just ran my last regular season meet but I could not be more excited for the playoffs to begin. I'm looking forward to a really hard week of training and then racing at the district meet on Wednesday! :-)
