11.76 mi, 2:04:37, 10:35 avg, HR 134 bpm
Started out from Longleaf near the little church. Saw Tom running down Starkey with Lee looking like they still had a few more miles to go as the headed onto Towne Ave. Got going and in a little bit ran into Melanie and Jason, said hi to them briefly and then kept on going. Ran into Aristida neighborhood, down Diane's street to the end and then stopped at her house on the way back for some drink refills, glad she still had her stuff out.
Next, headed north a little more, into Starkey Park until a little over 7 miles completed, back the way I came, down Starkey Blvd but skipping the detour to Diane's house.
For mile 10, slowed it back down enough to get 128 bpm for that mile, needed to do some walking (12:32 pace), but then finished off the run going at a steady pace with a little bit of a pickup for the partial mile after 11.
Decent miles this week and a race (at night nonetheless), going to get out of the slow rut (but still go slow on the easy days).
