Notes
Another shorter long run, will bump it up again next weekend after Thursday's race. Was hard to get the pace I wanted today, legs were more tired from yesterday than expected, and the route isn't easy either. Felt super awkward on the downhills in the first two or three, probably because legs were too tired to turnover fast enough to match the steepness. Middle five miles are all a climb but tried to ratchet down the pace (without too much luck), then got to the gradual downhill section and made up some time. By 11 I was a hair over 7 flat pace, then Obtuse hill KILLED my momentum. Got to a mile out, saw I needed 6:15 to average 7:00 and ran in a sec or two under 6. Had more left than I thought, and def could have gone faster, so probs could have made the rest of the run quicker. Ah well.
Caught a nasty stitch around 55 in, that's what I get for neglecting core! Looks like I gotta get back on that horse too.
