We had the Davis Invite today!!! absolutely amazing!! Unfortonatly i missed out of the Invite by a hair :/ oh well. So i woke up around 7 and took a shower and got ready and left. We met up with the bus and were soon on our way. Only tired out of our minds!! after trying to sleep on the bus we eventually showed up at Davis and began to settle in. The Bletchers we set our stuff on had water on them and snow which was frozen!! Its was way cold and we could see our breath so Tyler, Jace and I decided to go into the school, find a bathroom and keep warm in there. Mostly cause the meet hadn't started yet and we weren't to race for a while. We Found some patches of sun that was beaming through a window (Something us Warriors don't know about :P) so we literally laid in it and soaked up the Window and Warmth of it! Ha ha even Talley commented on how we found the little patch of sunlight so lay in!! at this moment my Ipod stopped working >:( totally ruined my plans for later! but i told them that after about an hour of laying around and screwing off, i was gonna go to the bathroom and then go warm up for the mile. It hadn't warmed up very much, so i started a 10 minute warm up and ran into the most amazing girl i the world, Susannah Hurst!! I said hello and gave her a hug and told her that i was gonna go on my warm up and that i'll see her in a second. so off i went. my legs were a little sore, my shins have been bugging lately and stuff so i knew i needed a good one. I finished and went and got my spikes and was stretching when Susannah came over and we began to talk. And she said that she was gonna cheer here by my parents. I went to the Start line and did some agilities. We lined up for the mile and they were doing a triple water fall. so i knew i needed to get a good start. That didn't happen. the whole time i was staring up at Daniel and Jamon trying to figure out how in the world i was gonna get up there. I got boxed in sooooo bad i could not get around and pick things up. just wasn't gonna happen. i finish behind Jamon and had a time of 4:44. ( terrible time for that day, i was going for a 4:30). but that didn't get me down, i still had the 3200 left to do! I Cooled down inside with Susannah and Abigail and we ran around and saw their team scattered everywhere. she showed me where they were situated in the gym. and we hung out there a little bit. It was snowing really bad out side!!! the meet was postponed for 10 minutes which also really messed up the schedule and i had no idea when to warm up for the 3200. It was wonderful being able to hang out with Susannah the whole time. I soon had to warm up for the 2 mile and began doing that, but first i had to talk to Paxton and figure out when i should cause by then the meet was an hour and a half behind schedule (no surprise really). I did a 10 minute warm up again, and then took a quick bathroom break, while waiting for a stall i decided to get my brief stretching in. I got outside and noticed that there was 2 laps left for the girls 3200. Great i still had to do some agilities and put on my spikes. Paxton yelled at me for not being over there. oh and i didn't have my sticker yet!! But everything worked fine, i got my spikes on just in time to get a few brief agilities in. I lined up and i was 5th seated in the race. We got ready and the gun shot. I wasn't messing around with the placement this time in the start. i got out there and saw the waterfall to my right so i pulled into lane 1 and let them come in. i knew i'd work my way up. a kid went out way fast and i pulled him in by lap 3 and was then leading the race. first mile was 5:02. everytime a kid would come up to me on my wing i'd speed up. I wasn't gonna let anyone take the lead. this was my race. and that got to their heads all through the race. cause i kicked it and won by 10 meters. my final time was 10:06!! i didn't slow down that much!! it felt amazing and i fought for it!! It was now the Invited section of the Davis meet!! I sat around with Susannah the whole time and we played the Dot game and talked cause she had to stay off her feet (oh i also forgot i gave her an awesome list!!!) I warmed up and Cooled down with her which was amazing!! it was soooooo much fun being able to hang out with her at a track meet again!! I cheered her on in her 800 leg of the medley and John and Abigail and everyone else had me in lock down so i couldn't go down and see her right before her race! Their team took first in the race!! Soon came Susannah's 3200 race!! we cheered her on for that and she was fighting this girl and totally showing her whos race this was, until she nearly tripped her!! and started to shove her! >:( totally not a true racer! Susannah was really up set about the race and she ended up taking 3rd cause this girl was such a jerk. She didn't want to go get her award so we warmed up to our tree and chilled there for a little bit. We spent the rest of the meet cheering and having a great time!! it was soooo much fun and i can't wait for BYU!!!!
