To lose contact with a group of runners.

CONT

Coach Wilson detailed, "Our 3200 relay was second, even against that (brief) turnaround time (for Luis), and I thought Sara (Félix) and Erin (Sheik) did well for never running it before. They didn't have great times, but they did what I told them to. I told Erin not to lose contact with the leaders. She didn't have to be first but not to lose contact, and then we told Sara kind of the same thing.
