Did some exploring and running regular sections in reverse - 8.25 miles, averaged 8:15

 

 

Run up Greenbush to put in some hill climbs, went to Wolf Park to explore the outskirts of town, did some climbs there and on the way back, some 90% efforts for turnover and form. Basically I did whatever felt right. Excellent birthday run.
