Over the break, I grew as a runner. Although I missed five days of practice and a race on the first week of break, due to a trip to Las Vegas, I worked hard the second week and improved my 3.1 mile time on the second race of the break. From my previous race, I ran 45 seconds faster. However, the time I had was not where I wanted it to be. I ran at a 7:20 mile pace and ended at about 22 minutes. I plan to improve because I usually can do a mile in less than 7 minutes. I realized that as the distance got further, my pace would get slower. Another thing I realized was that I should have saved more energy for a faster sprint at the end. While I was a little frustrated about my pace, I became even more determined. Overall I grew in running and also mentally, having more motivation and determination than I had before.
