So, let's start from the beginning...
We left school on Friday and headed to Winnemucca. The meet started at 3, when it was starting to cool down! We ended up having 3 school records broken! Everyone did good in their events! My friend Selu got fifth in Discus so she qualified for state! In each event, the top five go to state. At this point I was wondering if I would even qualify! I was way nervous even though i wasn't running that day.
I enjoyed myself going back and forh between shade and sun, while at the same time just hangin' out.
At around nine thirty was the boys 4x4 relay. Probably the most intense race I've ever seen. The Truckee coach was talking some crap about how our boys were going to get smoked in this race, and at the beginning of the race we were! Our anchor, Austin took off and got in front of Truckee which brought us to first!! During this race there wasn't a spot open on the fence or bleachers to watch!
We spent the night at the smallest hotel I've ever slept in! 4 girls and a very small bathroom... Luckily I got up first and was able to get reeady before the bathroom got crowded! Haha!
Saturday was the day I was running the 4x4. I felt like I was going to throw up! Looking at the Track before I had to run it looked so big, and I had to sprint around it... People kept telling me run fast, and run until you pass out, and a whole bunch of other stuff that added to my nervousness!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! The race was at the end of the day, by that time I just wanted to get it over with!
My time was okay. I improved by three seconds. I love how our coaches position themselveves at each corner of the track, and tell us (more like yell at us) what to do while we're running. Usually one of the coaches is at the last 200 near the home stretch telling me to pump my arms, that's when I usually hit a wal and die, and get all tense. I didn't see her there! But Jaysen and my friend Tyler were standing there and Tyler was yelling at me to pump my arms, so I did!
WE QUALIFIED FOR STATE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I told mom to bring the camera for me but she didn't so I have no pictures.... :( Sorry.
