Well, I had my first round a couple of days ago. It did not go as well as I hoped but I made it through the first round into the semis with a 1:45. I felt alright before the race, but it really does not matter how you feel. After the race, I felt terrible but I thought it was due to dehydration and or just getting back into running mode. I cooled down and started my recovery process, feeling confident that I would feel much better. So the next day I felt that I should continue to do what I had been doing all year and I should qualify on place or either time. SO I went for it, and I felt terrible, which is no big deal because there have been many races that I felt terrible and still ran great. After 400 felt alright, not good, not bad, after 600 felt a bit tired, but this is no big deal because after coming through 50 and 1:17.2 you are going to feel a bit tired. Yet, I thought that I would finish better, even if I tired a lot. As you know, I did not finish well. I thought maybe I would get in on time, but it was not good enough. SO, I really have to figure out how to get over this hurdle and this is a giant hurdle for me. I put it all on the line and it still did not work out and I am better than that. Yet, it never all come togethor when I want it to. I thought I would feel better because I had just run 1:44.2 in Monaco but my preparation was stalled due to a hamstring injury. The injury did not hamper me because I did not feel it at all. I was confident before the race, but it just did not work out. I am so upset but I have to keep pushin. I guess there is a lesson in everything in life. I am started to wonder why is it taken me so long to soak it all in. Either way, the race is over and I am going to run a couple of more races just to see if my body come up how my body is suppose to.
Well, we all put here for a reason on a particular path, you do not need a curriculum to know that you are part of the math. Cats think I am delirious but I am so darn serious, thats why I expose my soul to the globe to the world, I am trying to make it easier for all the other little track running boys and girls.
SO what did I learn from this experience? After all of my other failed attempts of making the Finals. After all of my other downfalls.
