Ran up and down Butterfield canyon with Daryl, Summer, and Cassie. Climbed about 1800 feet over 5 miles and the elevation at the top was 7179. The weather cooperated well. I think it was very close to 32 degrees. We ran into some very minimal snow flurries for a while. But the worst part was a crusty snow field in mile 5. I ended up walking that portion. As you would expect, this was not a low heart rate run. Average heart rate was 160bpm with 173bpm max. Also, the mile times varied significantly as follows:
10:14, 10:16, 10:48, 12:29, 16:41, 8:24, 8:29, 7:47, 7:36, 7:26, 7:22 (partial)
Overall average pace was 10:17/mile. This was a very tough run and I hope I don't cramp up too badly. |
