LM warmup, 20.31 miles in 2:41:01, 7:55/mi, HR 159, w/ 2000' climb and descent & stretching. First long run in a couple of weeks. Managed a good run in decent weather, although I could've done without the sustained wind gusts of 20-30 MPH. Decent on the climb outbound, felt tired by the turnaround so the last half was mentally getting myself to maintain a decent clip without dropping into a walk. At 8am this morning, I pulled over the car (on the way to puppy kindergarden, week 5) to sign up for the Cascade Crest 100, when registration opened. Good thing I did because *after* kindergarden, I checked and registration had already closed. So its a good thing that I was able to spend nearly $200 so I can run 100 miles in August. Yeah. |
