Left the house intending a slow run, got the the trailhead, hit start on the watch and play on the Ipod,  1st song up was Rage, Know Your Enemy, rock'en! Add a mountain bike and another runner ahead on the trail and well....so much for easy.  I "eased" into the faster pace and it felt good so I kept it up.  Got the runner right away and the mtn bike before the end of the first climb, but I had to pull over and let him by at the top as it was flat to downhill and I didn't have a chance, of course.  Kept a good solid pace for the rest of the run. 5.45 miles 7:38 pace, 705 ft climb. Moderate to hard effort. (27th to BST at Taylor, south via the high trail, dropped down to the gate, back to Waterfall,  low trail to 29th, up to BST at Taylor and back around to 27th)

This chest gunk, cold thing has been fleeting so we'll see what tomorrow brings, hopefully feeling strong again.

Love Rage and it always gets me going. Nice fast run for the miles and vert.

Thanks Scott. Funny how the first song up sometimes sets the mood for the whole run.
