5.04 miles in 40:45, 8:06/mi, HR 171.

After some intervening time off with a few sporadic short treadmill "PT" runs, back to trying again.  The left hip muscles started overtensing again around 1/2 mile in, mostly the glute/hamstring and the adductor but was pretty manageable and faded to nearly nonexistant by a couple of miles in.  Soreness/pain got to about a 2.

6 trail miles in 1:21:42, 13:37/mi, HR 157.

Snoey to E. Anvil Loop to Upper Elkspur to Memorial West to Memorial East back to Snoey with Ivy.  Aside from a few stops to investigate suspicious smells, a pretty steady effort.  Several sections had some icy snow on them which made for slow going but most were in surprisingly good condition.  Not even any trees blocking the trail from the ice storm a few weeks back.

I believe I got into Cascade Crest via the lottery today.  I'm guessing I made it since my credit card got charged.  That means I have 195 days to get in 100-miler shape.  This hip thing needs to get better in a hurry.
