starts on the turn

Starts from lane 8 on the turn today on a beautiful spring day in Sewanee, 68º, sunny with a breeze.

Saucony trainers on 

400m warmup, stretches, drills 

50m strider 

Puma spikes on 

2 x 30m from blocks  

200m from blocks - 26 

2 x 100m from blocks (400m start line) - 13, 13 

200m from blocks - 26.5

In heat 10 of 12 tomorrow.   Looking at the guys in my full heat of 8 - in which I'm listed as slowest... seems like 2 or 3 guys are bonefide faster than me, and some of the others have no 400m history or just estimated seed times.  I shouldn't finish last.  Weather doesn't look good....  mid 60ºs, 60% chance rain, 10-15 mph wind.  Not optimum weather conditions for a fast time or a good lane (8), but will be a good training run.

I'm in the Vanderbilt Invitational next weekend.

143 lbs after workout.

This is my 5th yr running in college track meets.  Most guys only get 4 yrs.
