Easy mile shakeout on the track in the morning. Race tonight is at 8:25 PM. Woo! 

Felt super great in the race! Warmed up and did the hurdle ritual and such, then got on the line and bang! Race go! First lap I got a little scared because we went out at a 84 and I was aiming for 87-88, so then I backed off. Probably shouldn't have at that point, since I had tons left at the end of the race. Anyway, with 2 laps to go I realized that I had a lot left so I started pushing but by then it was too late to make up the ground I'd lost in the middle laps. Lame! But still, my water barriers were great, my hurdles were great and I got a seasons best by a few seconds. So, even though I didn't push as hard as I should have, I was still super excited that I felt really great for the first time in for-freaking-ever and that I know I can do better!

Why late night races? Outdoor track? Just remember where you are on the track so don't fall of it!

No idea. Track is just strange like that I guess... :)

Good job.

I once ran a track 10K that started one day and finished the next day. Now that's late! Needless to say, there were not a whole lot of spectators that stuck around.
