just some light easy runs until the track meet, probably do another tonight, 2 tomorrow, and rest completely thursday. Then fly on Friday.

Excited about the 200m tbh.. Think I can go sub28 for sure. We'll see though.. My #1 mission is not false starting. I've never sprinted out of blocks before, but can't see it being much of a problem. Just don't want to false start, lol.

For the 200m, I felt fine after the mile rep. Not sure how i'm going to do the 3600 after the 200m but whatever, maybe i'll just go out pacer style and then bail when i'm dead. who knows. lol.

Legs were so dead today.. warming up was rough. Sunday really beat me up. All good though. Should be flying Friday!



workout: bw
- ok

S1: 5sec paused dead hang ng pullups: BW x 8
S1: full dips: BW x 10

whoa this track meet i'm doing tonight will have LIVE RESULTS! what did I get myself in to? lmao!!

http://files.milesplit.us/live_results/301651/index.html

THE SEED LISTS CAME OUT!

I'm solid over 1600m. I'm the slowest guy over 200m, LMFAO!!! Decent over 3200. A guy I know who is really fast was the only person running 5000m, so he moved up to 3200. So now we have another near sub10 guy in there.

The 400m/200m dudes are crazy fast. For 200m, some 20.x guy in there from Haiti, all 21's for the first heat.

I'm so proud of the 200m. Really, so proud.

So, I was placed in the slowest heat (heat 5), justifiably. Then, out of nowhere, they are like "Andrew Darqui Lane 7" in the 2nd fastest heat. With guys who ended up dropped 21's. I started laughing at that point, but then tried to focus. So I get into the blocks, start solid, by 50m a SWARM of beasts just fly passed me and I just start hysterically laughing. I was laughing the rest of the way until the finish, and I am still laughing hours later as I type this. Not entirely sure why I keep laughing when I think about it, but it really is hilarious when you think about it. I mean here I am, first track meet, and they move me from the 5th to the 2nd, with the big dogs. I just can't get over it. At the end of the 200m, I just jogged off laughing. I couldn't even go max I was just cracking up too much. LMFAO.

I guess now I know i'm capable of sub28 in the very near future. I'd have hit it if I wasn't laughing so hard. LMFAO!!!

The distance guys thought I was nuts for doing 200m after 1600m. I mean, even they were laughing. I guess it's just hilarious no matter how you look at it.

3200m I was toast. Wanted to help pace my friend for at least a mile but just had no gas and didn't feel like coasting it out at a weak pace. So just DNF'd & watched it.

Next meet, i'll just do 1600m & 200m, no 3200m. This way, I can give more on my 1600m.

As for the 1600m, my estimated time is probably way more accurate than the official time. I was planning on doing that start on the curved line (waterfall?) where you cut in real fast. Then, last minute they tell us to get into lanes and I had no clue what to do. So I followed some kid and we went out wide, probably didn't cut in correctly.. Probably legit ran ~10s further than a mile.

Anyway, happy about it. Was fun.

Can't wait to do another one!

Also props to my dude Junior Rosa who got 2:07 in the 800m, at like 49 or 50 years old! Such a monster!!





















^^ when I tell you I couldn't stop laughing, i'm serious.. some still frames from a video, of me laughing all the way to the finish.. LMFAO.

^^ as for the mile.. just remembered: I ran the first ~1.5 laps on the side of someone who was in lane 1. lol. so I was a bit closer to lane 2.

I bet that's what gave me some extra distance.

I finally got tired of doing that close to 600m in, and overtook him/stayed in front. Then, someone else kept trying to pass me but i'd speed up and prevent it, I probably ended up making them run more distance.

Lesson learned! Hug the inside of lane 1, but don't get boxed in (which is easy in these races).

rest day.

interesting.. calves very tight upon wakening up, similar to lots of recent days. then later after a 3 hour nap, substantially better.

1 mile race on a (dirt) horse track tomorrow.. but it's schedule to be raining/lightning. Not sure how this event happens.
