Sura Kitata is a legit threat though… Should be interesting. I got Kamworor again, he always rises to the occasion.

Early in 1954, Bannister was running each quarter in about 61 seconds, a pace that left him very disappointed. He knew that he would have to figure out some way to get a little faster if he wanted to break through the coveted 4-minute-mile barrier. Frustrated by his inability to improve, Bannister took a complete 3-day respite from running. When he returned to the track after this furlough, he found that he was suddenly able to run the same 10 quarters in 59 seconds each. Thus, the two cornerstones of Bannister's training had been put in place: (1) 400-meter interval training at close to race speed and (2) periodic total rests to produce freshness, improve speed, and permit the body to adapt and recover. These two principles, race-specific training and enhancement of recovery, remain relevant today.

- started out way too fast, 4:5X/5:0X pace -> was honestly trying to go out conservatively (5:3X)

once i realized i started out too fast, had to dial it back, everything slowed down.

last year I did this race at like 18:52. hehe.
