Ok, I was doing the 200 in a meet, and i start of slow on curve so i started off in third place out of three girls. Then, on the straightaway, i started catching up and finally, i passed the girl in front of me. I got 2nd in my heat.
Next, i was anchor in the 4 by 2 (This is my first year running and i don't personally think i'm that fast, so i was really nervous). Again, i started out slow, and started picking it up in the last 100. But all of a sudden, this girl is behind me and i'm running for my life but she ends up passing me.
Automatically, i start slowing down, only to find that this other girl was right behind the girl who just passed me and she ends up beating me by point 3 seconds.Mind you, i'm in a relay that was in the lead until it was my turn so this is like the worst feeling EVER
Then at the last meet i did, i started out way too slow on the curve and they got too far in front of me so it was like i was jogging the rest of the race only i didnt mean to.
Advice?
