The weather was not the most ideal for my run today, but it ended up being a great run anyways. The first four miles of my run were against the wind, and of course the worst part of the wind was in the open going up the long hill before I got to four miles. Between the wind and the hill I was pretty spent aerobically at the top. I recovered on the steep downhill and then once I turned onto 8th east I had the wind at my back and felt really good the rest of the way back. I actually passed a guy that I'm pretty sure is on the track or xc team at USU, but I think he was taking it easy. At any rate ended up averaging 6:11s.
