Bearer of all agonies Posted September 5, 2020 Report Share Posted September 5, 2020 I’m kind-of a good runner. I’m definitely not better than most kids at my school, but I am ok. I’m a good sprinter though. . . 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Truthless of Shinovar Posted September 5, 2020 Author Report Share Posted September 5, 2020 Just competed in the first meet of the season today! It was 3.1 miles, and I got 22:18 for my time. But man, that course was weird. I had no idea where I was half the time, and the majority of the course went uphill. Pretty much everybody in the race was struggling near the end, there were these three hills right before the finish line that kinda sucked the life out of everyone. On the bright side, it was very scenic! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I PRed again today at my meet. 22:09! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Like 27:40, but that was mostly a fluke when my average time was more in the 30-35 range. Now I can tell I'm actually improving; my times had been steadily improving. But this is a decent jump. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Truthless of Shinovar Posted September 12, 2020 Author Report Share Posted September 12, 2020 2nd meet of the season today, ran on a very familiar course (one I’ve run twice every year since 3rd grade), but the heat just cut down my time, so I only got 7 seconds faster than last meet. Still a good race, but hopefully I’ll do better next week (supposed to be very flat and in the morning, so I’m looking to PR) 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
