Notes
Easy LR from the amp with Ian and Caleb for most of it. We went out and back on the trail to Easter Lake for the first 12, then dropped off Ian, then did a Grays loop with Caleb, then was solo through WWP for the last 7-ish. It was pretty warm out this morning with temps in the 70s and much warmer by the end. I felt pretty good though as the pace was pretty chill when I was with Caleb and Ian, but once I was solo I let the pace increase and was able to roll in the low-6's without any trouble. Solid effort this morning and the body felt good
Took a regular maurten 100 gel before the start, a maurten 160 gel at mile 5, and then a maurten caffeine gel at miles 10 and 15. I also carried a water bottle the first 15-ish miles and got down about 20 oz of water from that so that was good. Nutrition all settled fine. Oh yeah I also got a raging bloody nose around like 8 miles, i could taste the blood running into my mouth, but we were out in the sticks so couldn't do anything about it. Eventually it stopped and I ran the rest of the run with crusted blood on my face so I'm sure that looked nice lol
