Notes

8:36 pace - pretty good for an old guy doing more than 12km. Damned impressive by my modest standards. Did not stop for air once. Felt good during and after. Worked up a sweat. Muscles felt a bit tight but strong in the last two miles. My stride during the last two was noticeably shorter than during the first two. Knees felt okay, and good afterward.

Weather in the 50s with almost gale-force winds from the eastish, but it varied wildly, and was sometimes headwind and sometimes tailwind. It was definitely a headwind running up the hills on Old Cheney, which made them a challenge.

Feel really good about the run, and about the prospect for the half (four weeks to go!).
