1:57:46. Wonderful trail run on my "flat" trails. I parked in a different spot, hoping to figure out how do this in laps so that during the summer I will be able to drop water. It was about 1:10 to do the whole lap once -- I got water and then wound around a bunch of other trails to find my way back. Greg said I could run the last 5` at 1/2 marathon pace if I was feeling "frisky" - I actually ran a little hard the last 10` because there were some mountain bikers on the trail - they were stopped at the bottom of a hill when they saw me coming and jumped on their bikes in front of me, well, of course, I *had* to stay as close to them as possible. It was uphill the last mile and they finally stopped and pulled over and let me pass ;-). I will admit, they weren't exactly true competitive mountian bikers (who would have kicked my behind) - but I was pretty happy to have "beaten" them anyway - especially since I wasn't even breathing hard!!
I hope you are all having a wonderful day with friends and family! |
