Warm up. Had actually jogged slowly for a couple of minutes before getting the watch going.
Felt surprsingly good.

US Nationals Sprint Champs at Sierra College. Excellent run for me, steady throughout, only a few steps in two places in non-optimal directions, hardly anything worth calling a mistake, certainly nothing that caused a loss of more than 5 seconds. Wound up first in M70, and also had a faster time than anyone in M65 (and than anyone at all on the "Brown" course).
Had been so sleep deprived and frazzled beforehand, amazing that I was able to concentrate fully once the race started.
