Grandeur "Fun" Run!
2:20:58, 9.5 miles, 3,900 feet of gain.
Set a solid 13 minute Grandeur PR without hurling or feeling that horrible. Was pretty wobbly on the descent into Millcreek, but still faster than I've ever run it. The trails were perfectly wet - sticky but not slick. Best part was finishing with the smell of bacon in the air.
Made friends with a super nice gal on the way down that nicely waited for me atop the final climb to make sure I didn't get lost heading down to the finish (course is unmarked and confusing!). Nice gal also convinced me to head up for a short cool-down loop which ended up being another 1,800 feet of climbing - ha! Trail peeps are crazy.
13 miles total with 5,700 feet of climbing. Perfect Steeplechase training run.
