Notes
Temp 45 Winds Calm. Warmed to 56 by end of run.
New route, lots of mistakes. Planned to run earlier when temps were in the 30s. Went ahead left wearing same gear with temp at 45. Lots of climbing early. Went out a little fast and overheated. Stopped about a quarter of the way up Ridge Road climb and lost the long-sleeve. HR already elevated. Recovered nicely and ran strong rest of the way to top, then through steep climbs and drops in Bent Creek. Last climb out, getting back on top of ridge, started to feel it in the legs. More climbs through Green Meadows and on over to south side of Main. By the time I made it back to Old Cape Road, the legs were toast. Nearing end of mile 8 and I'm in hang on and finish mode.
Slowest mile 9:14 -- the last. Fastest mile 8:43 -- while in Bent Creek...ah ha, found the one that put me under. Will have to wait and see how legs respond. Hopefully didn't put too much of a beat-down on them. If can recover in normal time frame, will actually be beneficual workout.
