SJU meet as invited guest by friend, training buddy and SJU alum Jim Schoffman. Nice track, great group of college age runners. Ran a 400 with Jim, Shawn Ragan and one other. Drew lane 4, slops start- didn't pop out of the blocks and had a few paces defecit on Jim at the bell. Did my usual come home strong act as Jim faded. Another 67sec (67.57) effort- stuck in a rut and leaving too much out there especially on first lap. Aaagh!
Twenty minute recovery then into the 200 with Jim and Shawn again on my outside and me lane 3. Better start and we decided we would run it at target 400 effort. Surprisingly I caught Jim around the last turn, he kicked, which spurred me on to finish a stride ahead in 30.52. Felt comfortable and not maxed out, so speed is there, but race tactics need improvement (both times within hundredths of 2 weeks ago!)
Anyhow fun meet.
