Race: Dixie All-Comers (3 Miles) 00:19:21

Total Distance

9.50

AM- Easy 3. Right when we started I was having sharp stabbing pains in my lower left back. It really hurt, but I got over it fairly quickly. After that, I had similar pains in my right glute. That ended by about 3/4 done. The rest was pain-free, but I had never experienced stabbing pains like these. They weren't enough to slow me down behind the group, but they still hurt. Hopefully it doesn't happen during the race.

Race- We went to the Dixie All-Comers today and boy did I not do as good as I would've liked. I started up with Andrew and only kept with him for not even half a mile. I started dying about then. I went the whole race getting passed person after person and I felt like I could do nothing about it. And that's why I didn't do good. I lost before I even started because of my bad attitude. That and my diet and hydration are the main things I think I need to change. I tend to have the worst attitude about myself during races. I ended up running a 19:21. Not exactly satisfied with my time, but I could've done a lot worse.

All runners have poor races. Even the world's best runners have a bad race from time to time. But what makes them the best in the world is that they learn from those races, they use it to build them up instead of tear them down. Keep working hard and use this race to help you do better next time and chances are you will.

Thanks, Cam! I guess you have to have bad races or else you'd never have a good one. :)
