Did the Tudor run, a little further out. Looking at the elevation profile from the GPS watch, it became suddenly clear why the way out is slower than the way back... I'm going uphill pretty much the entire time. Averaged 7:38 with an average heart rate of 126. I need new shoes however, and I'm going to do the probably boneheaded thing and wait until I get back to Seattle. Legs are tight, but I can survive for three weeks, especially with no races on the docket. |
