I know I've asked this a lot, but I'm trying to make a decision.

There's a track meet coming up on May 20th for the whole county. It's not very competitive, since the national mile times for this contest (Hershey Track and Field) are only 5 minutes or so for my division. I will be competing against people up to a year older than me.

On the same day, I'm competing against the top 5 13-year-old girls in my school for the mile. This is in the morning. The track meet starts at 5:30 and goes to 8:30.

I'm doing the mile run and the standing long jump. There's one more event that I could do:

100 meter dash

200 meter dash

800 meter run

I don't really fancy myself as a sprinter, but I've been complimented when I was just running up the street to catch my friend.

My coach says that I shouldn't do the 800 because

1. I'm already running the mile twice that day,

and

2. I could experiment with short distance (200) and just see how I do.
