My time in California is coming to a close. I have spent the last 5 weeks training and racing here in California. It has truly been amazing. I have met some incredible people and made connections I hope will last for a long time to come. I have said it many times on this trip, I have felt more at home in my 5 weeks here than I have in my time in Toronto. I am sad to see this trip come to an end.
However, I am really excited for what the end brings. The OXY high performance meet at Occidental College in L.A. This meet is absolutely insane. With my 3:40.15 seed time, I am 38th of 49 entries. The slowest seed is 3:42.87 and fastest at 3:30.90. There is no other word other than insane.
Since my race at Payton Jordan, I have been tapping into a little more speed to be able to close out that last 300m. I have had 5 solid sessions between Payton and OXY. I am a lot more confident going into this race now that I have a few checkpoints and know where I am at.
As always, my goal is to beat as many people as I can and toe the line ready to compete and willing to hurt.
I'll be sure to give an update after the race.
As many of you know I am fundraising to purchase an altitude tent. Please check out my homepage for more information.
