Engerham

Notes

We went to Engerham for this week's long run, which went well. We were told to take the run easy and those who are racing DIII's to cut back to only about 2/3 of their normal long run distance, so I got to run with Wade as we were both looking for about 12 miles. When we got to the top of the first long hill we started to press a little bit (though by no means hard) but we ended up dropping the main group pretty hard so it was the two of us and Dozer for most of the run (though we dropped him too eventually). I had forgotten about the major hill in the second half of the run, since I did the cutoff last time which skipped it, but it was brutal and I struggled with it a little bit. Nevertheless I made it and the rest of the run felt really good (besides very cold). It was a little snowy of the dirt roads which got pretty treacherous, especially on our way back down, but we managed okay.
