Long run! Did OK, found a good cruising pace at 8:25ish after a slow start up the hills, then leg tightened and slowed for miles 7 & 8. Then 9-11 it loosened up again and allowed me to run 8:20s again. Feel better about RtB now.

Nice cool cloudy breezy day for running. Went out toward Sand Beach and back. Started very slow and felt logy, then picked it up a bit when shirtless running guy joined me. Still didn't break 8:30s though.

Felt kind of tired but slogged through anyway. Gorgeous day, felt a little better by the end.

Tried out the new mill. Super nice! Ran 16 minutes warmup, then 8 x 1:00 fast, 1:00 slow, with fast being relative--7:30 -> 6:53 pace. Felt smooth, hope to keep a bit of turnover in the midst of the long(er) pre-RtB runs.
