The meet was a success in my view. I think the times were solid and the only event I felt I underperformed in was long jump (been dealing with pain underneath my ankle on takeoffs over the past few months). Also, the relays were comprised of my friends and fiancee so it made the meet experience a ton of fun. This was my first 400m in over 5 years and I executed the race model pretty much exactly how I wanted to. I had all 5 events in about a 4 hour time span and spent the whole time on the infield area competing, warming up, or cooling down/resting. I would not have been able to handle this workload at a meet last year, so its an encouraging sign for the future. I’m gonna chill for a week or two but I’ll be back on the wagon training for next year. The goal is to run at more than 1 meet and try to get my 400m time down to the 51 low or 50 high range. Successful training and hopefully a sign of things to come!
