Usual Route down into the riverbottoms, very difficult run and the old legs were super tired and very heavy. Its just sheer determination that got me through this run and thats about it. My average pace was slow at 9:10 with a total time of 2:00:46, a pretty good weak mileage wise so that is a good thing.
