Before we left for Logan we (Me, Bill, Sarah, and Jakob) did an easy 2 miles at sunnyside park. Then we drove to Logan. Got there and did warmed up with the team and Blake Bennion. We ran about 2 miles warmup then I did some strides and raced the mile. 

Got out well and right around the 100m mark Connor took control. After he took control he had a gap of about 30m and Stockon Smith and I were battling hard in laps 1-6. Then on the 7th lap I threw a surge and closed the gap to about 20-25 meters. With 200m to go (1 lap left) I really started to move and going around the final curve Connor and I were shoulder to shoulder. Connor had a little bit left and was able to get in front of me at the end. Offical results were Connor at 4:21.08 and I was 4:21.40.

Jogged a cool down of 2 miles with Lehi and East and then elevated my legs and went over to the Cafeteria to grab something light. There wasnt a lot so I ended up eating 2 poptarts and chex mix so not the best. Headed back over to the track and did around a mile warmup and then raced the 2 mile. Connor felt sick so at the last minute he decided not to race. I went out kind of fast with the first 200 being a 31. Then I slowed down and ran 37s-38s for the rest of the laps. I ran a 9:40 so nothing special but it was still rough. Cooled down 2.5 miles with Bill, Sarah, and Jakob.

Nice indoor opener, Garek. Sounds like a really exciting race bw/ you and Conner. Big things ahead for you this year.
