    I totally relate to your description of running a race that unlocked a new version of yourself! It only takes one race to prove to yourself what you’re capable of. That’s why it’s so important to never take any opportunity to race for granted!

    My times were similar in my senior year in high school, 1967-68. I ran mainly the mile in track. One of the more interesting races for me was in a dual meet with our rival, Burlingame,e high school. My coach told me to begin my kick in the back stretch of the third lap. So I was setting the pace and as we came to 800 meters, I said to him, "go ahead": and let him go by me. Then I passed him on the backstretch of the third lap, as my coach told me, broke contact with him and held on to win the race. In the league finals I ran against him and another rival. I came in second and ran my fastest time, 4:23, but it was a strange race to me at the time. We ran very slow for the first half of the race, but then picked up the pace on the third lap and the final lap was 59 seconds.

    This is important Zach. I have a question that would be super awesome if you answered. Where do you get your motivation to run daily? I am a high school sophomore and love to run... at practice. When I’m alone on weekends, I find it very hard to get motivated to actually go out and run.

    Bruh, we don't have a 4x800 team in high school. You lucky, that is favorite to watch since i can't watch the 4x4 since I'm in it 😅

    Tbh I think there was no way for you to see Adam coming in the second race so your move wasn’t bad
