Weather - 33 degrees, cloudy. Rode to Clinton Lake with Melinda this morning. We ran the 11 mile trail loop which circles the lake. It was my first time running there - lots of short steep hills to traverse, and sharp curves along single track trail - very beautiful and enjoyable run. There was a bit of mud, but it was not a hindrance. We ran the first 8 miles at a conversational pace, then I decided to speed up to threshold pace for the final 3 miles, which I was able to maintain without my legs getting too tired. |
