Notes
Out and back. On the way out just tried to hold myself in check, working on form. On the way back tried to let it go just a little, though it was still an easy pace. Sure enough I started struggling around mile 15 or 16 but it never really got bad at all. I'll count this as a very good training run.
BTW, Parks & Rec re-surfaced part of the Coyote Creek bikepath sometime in the last two or so weeks. From the Jim Howe Start, under the bridge, around the lake and then up to about .1 miles past the 101 bridge. That was some of the worst asphalt but now it's smooth as silk. There's still some mile or two of heaved asphalt but it's much better now.
