I've had some bad luck, and 2 weeks before state I've come down with the flu. This will definitely sideline me for conference, but I'm hoping to run at state. I was seeded to win the mile and 800, and was wondering if that was still a possibility. Im in a smaller division in a smaller state, and the times are 4:36 and 2:03.
In the mile, I have an 8 second lead over the next guy, and I have a quarter second in the 800. Me scoring a lot of points is really important to our team, as we are in the hunt for the team title. I recognize that my times are mediocre in most states, but I've still worked hard to run them in a very low mileage program. Which event should I focus on, and do I have a chance to still win either, or both? Thanks for any advice.
