Indoor Regionals

Today I ran at the Indoor Regionals Meet. Low temperatures and a small breeze followed us along during the race and the whole morning. My dearest J came all the way from the mountains to cheer for me. You are just the most adorable :)

I decided to run twice, the 1500 meters and the 3000 meters, not to maximum potential, but kicking it hard.
We started of kind of slow (3'35 on the 1 K) but I ended up in 5'11'' covered in gold. It is not my best time, but it is certainly a great start for the season. I am very happy and proud.

It took a very long while until they gave out our medals. Fortunately, we found a warm corner inside and stayed there.

And about an hour later than it was supposed to, the gunshot made us start on the 3000 meters. I felt very comfortable even though it was very very windy. I tried to sprint on the last 100 meters, but felt tired from the previous race. However, I still got the gold with 11'12'';)

Regionals

So, it came, regionals. Many months of hard work for today. The temperature was nice, but it was very very windy. M and A also ran, and J and D came to cheer for us (aren't they just so sweet?).

The level was amazing, I had never ran in such a competitive Championship in many years. I enjoyed myself (except for the wind and the fact that our uniforms make it difficult for me to breathe). You can probably see that on my pic.

M amazes me more each day, she has been very busy with exams and hasn't worked out so much but did  great. A was also incredible. How can someone ran sooooo fast? One can't even see her pass by.
We were second by teams :) But we sure missed C!!!
