Paul's in town and we made it up to watch some of the Ragnar Northwest Passage Race. We ran about 8 miles of the course backwards (around leg 32, Paul will probably know for certain), decent pace for most of it. I think we were between 7-8 minutes per mile. 

The new Ragnar race is beautiful, I'm in for next year. Sea level air, good views, rolling hills on fairly quiet highways (definitely quiet when compared to the Phoenix roads), no killer legs like Ragnar at WBR. And beautiful weather to boot, nothing warmer than 75 all day, and mild overnight.  No blaze orange shirts either, Dan and Tanner came up with a new design.

Another run on part of the Ragnar race course, on a beautiful mild morning. I turned back and let Paul pace a team until the end (so he can give a scouting report of legs 33-36). I was sore from yesterday. Didn't run real fast, probably around 8 min. miles. I'm pretty stiff, maybe slacking off the past two weeks wasn't wise.
