AM - 19 miles. Long run on the Jeremy Ranch road. What a great place to run! I feel like I already hit the jackpot in my search for dirt roads that are over 6000 feet. Nice gradual rolling hills on hardpack dirt. This is going to be a staple long run location. I also finally broke down and got a Garmin watch (specifically for these longer runs and trail runs). Ran the first 10 miles w/ Andrea at 7:00 pace, then picked it up a bit for the next 7 miles (6:18) while she biked with me. Threw in a fast mile for #18 (4:51) and then an easy mile to cap it off. Total run was 2:06:19. Perfect morning... started at 8am and it stayed relatively cool. PM - 3 miles shakeout. |
