Notes
Ran this one in the morning, I think this is the way to go. Felt fresh mentally and physically. It was very cold and windy though. Those first few laps running into the headwind on the back stretch were brutal. But once I warmed up it was fine.
For the two miles at 10K pace, I pushed what I felt was similar effort that I ran the Turkey Trot 8K. Felt good. Could have definitely run faster but I think for a 10K effort it felt about right.
