Today I drive down to the trail and ran 3 miles up Dixie Dr to meet up with some old Michigan friends. I ran 10 with them - back down to the trail & around the mayors loop, then back up to drop them back off to their car. By mile 13, I was already pretty tired, so I gagged down a gu and kept going- back to the the trails. We had a lot of stops on this run. 2 bathroom breaks, stopped as I met them and dropped them off and 1-2 other quick stops. My average moving pace was about 9:15, but if you count the 20 mins of stopping, much slower. My energy was pretty low, so I am just glad I made it through this one.
