Well yesterday was the Fredonia State Invitational. Those gosh darn blue-devils--brings back bad memories...this was my first XC race in college last year and I ran like a snail. A snail wearing a pair of shoes made out of concrete. I remember going out too fast and burning out and then just dragging myself the whole rest of the race.

This year i Planned on fixing that. I went out nice and easy. After the first mile I picked it up and felt comfortable and was going at a steady pace. Unfortunatly the other four AU guys and myself had a giant gap between us. I started to get closer to them--I saw one guy before Kenny and I was going to make my move and then all of the sudden they were all gone! Someone made a wrong turn. Not sure what happened but it really was frustrating for me. That place just stinks. Too confusing.

My time was a lot better than last year though. I dont even know what my time last year was but im just assuming its better. If it not well im gonna have to come back and edit this.

Either way, next week is Houghton. I just gotta keep my head up and keep on running.
