Dreher's Patterson Excited for Bojangles 200


How would you rate your season? 
So far I would rate my season at a 9 because I feel much healthier this year. Last year this time I wasn't fully healthy.

What do you hope to achieve this weekend at Bojangles Track & Field Classic in the
200
I want to be able to successfully run my race plan.

What does it mean to compete in the Bojangles Track & Field Classic as a national-caliber meet? 
It means a lot. This meet is exciting to me because of the amount of talent being showcased and it also gives me the opportunity to run against other national caliber athletes.

How do you see the race unfolding? 
I'm not really sure of the field but I plan to run the most technical 200 that I've ran all year. 

What will you prep be like the rest of this week? 
Monday: 250s
Tuesday: Blocks and Technique 
Wednesday: 200s
Thursday: Race modeling and mental preparation 
Friday: 200 prelims 

How do you handle meet day preparations? 
I get to the meet and do a shake loose. After my shake loose I find a place in the stands that's isolated from everyone else and put in my headphones and stare at the track and vision myself running whatever race I have coming up.
