So I'm at my grandma's because my parents ditched me and went to Canada, but my grandma happens to live right by Skyview so I thought I would go train with them. It just so happens that the one day I show up happens to be their time trial so that was unfortunate. Ethan wasn't running and I didn't know how I would compare to these kids so I just ran with the topish group. I caught up to Connor after like a half mile and stuck to his back. He was kinda stressed out because he thought I was a freshman or something and somebody said something about me being from Preston which I guess was some sort of ongoing joke from the coaches..? Anyways, I ran with him for most of it and with about 800 left he slowed down a little for some reason.. By then I had the course figured out so I got a small lead and held it to the finish. The final time was 17:25 for me so not bad but not great either.. I'm pretty worried for the Skyview/Weber meet in a few weeks because Connor (sorry if I'm spelling the name wrong) has a dang fast 800 time and a really good kick which he didn't use today.. I think they are luring us all into a false sense of security. Also, I didn't hear him breathe a single time during that whole race. Which means he was probably totalling chilling and getting me comfortable so he can kick my butt at the real race. But thats okay. It was fun. Skyview is sick. I ran a 2 mile cooldown home. The end.
