Notes
Ran with my Big D man Drew for the first 8 miles. Nice start to a long run. I was a little taken aback by the 6:15 mile that early with the road conditions. The Walmart stretch is terrible. There were half mile segments where the gravel was so bad my knees were clanking. I would have rather run that icy deerhound for these miles (Frosty and Collin). Got off the Walmart hills and it got a lot better until the L. The L was a hit or miss; either great or terrible. I don’t understand Bremer County’s thought process of just absolutely laying down a sheet of thique boi gravel randomly for a quarter mile. On both sides it’s completely fine. Kinda put a kabash on a few miles of this run. Ultimately a good day, kinda got whipped by the wind the last 4. Sugar levels got a little out of whack at the end, was drooling for Sat waffles from 8 miles out. Got the ok from coach to do this—more sleep tonight (no 5:15 wake up tomorrow) and I get to run a lot more with the boys tomorrow
