Weekly Post 3

Saturday there was a indoor track meet. It was my first indoor meet ever and I was a little anxious to get it started. I ran the 800. It was not fun at all. Not the track meet part so much but  more of the running part. I didn't run my best race and I was little disappointed naturally. So after I ran the 800 I was supposed to be done for the day. I was planning on staying a little longer to support my team but not run anymore. When I went back to our team area to get a drink I saw Ben Murrey there. He told me,

"Chuck someone did not show up to day so you are going to have to run more!"

At first I thought that he was kidding but he was not. It was a very sad feeling because I really did not want to run anymore because I was coughing and in result of my frequent coughing I sounded like a heavy smoker. So I had to stay until the very end because naturally the race I would have to run in would be the last one of a very long day. Around 6:30 I heard,

"C'mon guys, It is time to warm up."

That is when it hit me that I would have to be running in about 45 minutes. So we went to warm up and ran our race. Our team didn't do to bad in the relay. Our splits were decent and our coach was pleased. So I guess it was a eventful weekend.
