So, how are you doing blog reader. Your probably pretty bored if your reading my blog. Well, straying from the all-to-obvious, lets get to today. Today was the Bill Wilson Relays in Sebastian. Its kinda weird waking up at 6:30 on a saturday, but oh well. I ran in the 4X800, the first event. We did pretty good, and we were in first when i handed the baton off to the anchor leg, Lucas. But the guy from the other team destroyed us, and we came in second. Thats okay, cause we got a shiny silver medal for our efforts.
A few hours of huddling up underneath the stadium to get out of the wind and then i ran again, this time in the Steeplechase. The steeplechase is probably the most interesting race i have ever run. Basically it is a two mile race (around 7 and a half laps around a track), but the trick is there are hurdles three lanes wide in 4 spots around the track. And also, there is a final hurdle on the first curve, which is special, because directly behind the hurdle is a water pit that is 4 feet deep behind the hurdle, and then gently slopes out. It was crazy fun. The first lap i was running and everyone was so bunched up that when we got to the water hurdle, i messed up and ended up falling waist deep in the pit. Now, it was 60 degrees out with a 20 mph wind, so i was a little cold after that. The rest of the race went pretty fine, and there was this kid who was running in front of me that jumped over the water hurdle and did a flip cannon ball into it. It was crazy!
The event was scored by adding up the time of the runners participating. My team of three (me, Davis Mahon, and Lucas Simari) came in second, and i got my second silver of the day. It was pretty nice. Then i went home and have been surfing the internet for the past few hours, pausing in between to watch a little tv here and there. Well, i have to write an essay for brazee, but i really don't wanna, and im probably gonna end up putting it off till tomorrow night. Oh well, i am a artisan in the way of the procrastination. Its a curse.
Well, ima wrap this doggy up, so thanks for taking time out of your day to read my thoughts. Song for today is Come Undone by Vanessa Carlton. Enjoy. Unfortunately this song is also not on project playlist, so ima have to find an alternative source of links from now on.
A Vida Sin and goodbye
