After the first 200m of the mile my legs got a heavy tingling sensation. I did a bunch of striders and warming up beforehand but it was a heck of a struggle to keep going. My breathing was amazing. I never felt out of breath. It also was cold and rainy, but so was my last meet and I didn't feel like this.
Any advice?

Try strides
use someone else's legs?
I’ve found that elevating my legs as much as I can the week of the race really helps. Also dreaded freezing ice baths help too.
Try a magnesium supplement.

Sounds like fatigue? Try doing less the day before/ recovering better (sleep, food, stretching)
