Got there about an hour before the race and got a really good warmup with drills to loosen up. My seed time was too slow to get in the fast heat but they were able to bump me up.
Got out well and just took control. I felt confident. Not sure what the 800 was because there wasn't a clock on the otherside of the track. Its a 5 lap race because the track is around 300 meters. With 2 laps to go I felt Casey throw a surge but I matched it and stayed in the lead. The last lap I just ran scared, didn't look back, just worked through. 4:18! Broke the record so I was happy. 1-5 broke the old record which shows how deep Utah is. Legs felt pretty tired but my cardio felt good.
Cooled down 3 miles.
