felt the race went well, went out hangin in the back of the pack through the mile which went out in about 4:45. then started to move up the last five or six laps. was able to finish pretty hard so i think i could have gone out a little faster, but im still pleased with how things went.

i am disappointed in my race, i would call it a strategy error.

i finished very hard to just barely beat alumni anton 'toni' sella.

i am pretty satisfied with how things went with the race. i quickly fell to the back of the pack for most of the race. at 400 to go i began moving and passing people and finished in third in 4:26.09. the mile still feels very weird for me. i am very worried about going out to hard so i have been going out in the back of the pack.

overall i think things went rather well. this was a 7 second pr for me and i think as the season goes on i can improve.

Hey guys, congrats on your first performances of the year. Its fantastic to see you trying out races that are beyond your confort zone. Pretty solid times for the first attempt here in the early part of the season, especially coming off of the week that you had. I wish I could have been there to support you guys - a wish that I am sure I will reiterate on numerous occasions throughout the spring. It's really great to see you all running so confidently and with poise. I look forward to seeing how you fare against "real" competition.

p.s. How have the changes been as athletes of the Don? Any commentary on the new head coach?
