In reflection of the meet I think I can take away one thing for the rest of my life. It’s the act of doing that’s important not the result. It is cliche and heavily used throughout media nowadays but I think understanding that phrase is integral. During the race coming of a sickness, and continued sickness, my body collapsed 2nd mile and I wanted to drop out the race so bad. I’m ultimately proud of myself for not letting myself go and trying to fight my inner thoughts of giving up and stopping and making excuses. I may have not have gotten the place and time I wanted but, I got the experience of not giving up which I think is more useful. Good final race of the season.
