Taking 1 second at a time

Did my numbers game play out the way I had hoped? Not exactly. Though I most definitely am not allowed to complain about it because I did walk away with a PB in the open 400, so not a total loss. Sometimes I wrap my mind around times that I can't just let go and run. I constantly fight this battle of what I know I'm cabable of running and what I actually race. I then fail to recognize a gain when it's right in front of me. Again need to work on this.
