Notes

Pretty happy with this run. No course because I was just about done with it when the internet went out and then I lost the page after spending an hour doing the course. But anyway, it was 11.19 miles out (8.86 miles to where I think the 5 1/3 mile marker is entering Forbidden Drive, then I ran to and turned around at the 3.0 mile marker bringing the total to 11.19 assuming the markers are accurate), 11.31 miles in (not actually sure why in was longer -- no detours, and I thought the in was shorter when I do the in on the west side of the river, but the map was at 21 miles at the Drexel Bridge, so definitely 22.5 total). Splits (very close to even splits!): 1:39:37 out (8:54 pace), 1:40:56 in (8:55 pace). I did speed up in the middle of the run (doing 8:30 or faster miles in the middle miles) and definitely slowed down in the last few miles (over an hour from the Falls Bridge to home). Physically, felt some twinges in my right leg (gluteus? hamstring?) starting at around mile 10 and for the rest of the run, but hopefully nothing serious. Didn't really affect the run, anyway, and didn't seem like much (seemed like a nerve thing more than anything else). Good run. Gu at minutes 40, 1:22, 2:04, 2:46. Water with and in between.
