PowerBar Trail Race

Weather Report: Partly Sunny, 65°F, 58% Humidity, Winds: From N @ 12 mph; feels like 65°F.

Run: 9 miles in 1:11:03 min. @ 9:00 a.m.
Pace: 7:54 min./per mile avg.

A perfect day for a trail race, and one that I felt I ran particularly well. The final time was just a touch slower than last year, but this run was a smarter one for me, wherein a took the time to walk (very briefly) on certain uphill trails. I think it paid off with an adequate time and a better sense of what my body is capable of... even when my head wants begs me to quit after 4.5 miles.

Breathe in, breathe out... YOU AND I ARE ALIVE!
