trail running race 1:22:24 intensity: (4 @0) + (13 @1) + (8 @2) + (1:15 @3) + (6:02 @4) + (1:14:42 @5) 9.56 mi (8:37 / mi) +254m 7:58 / mi
ahr:147 max:154 shoes: Salamon SpeedCross 3

After some deliberation, I decided to enter this race. Having done it many of the past years, there is always that standard (time, place) one feels compelled to accomplish. But every year I will get slower, and as I get older in the age group my placing is bound to go lower. But showing up is the best part, and I look forward to who I will see there. This year I was surprised to see Steve, Tracy and Tora (with family). More Jukola Team bonding! Great to also see Bridgit Hall and Mom running the race.
A new course this year, which I think would be a bit slower, but had the advantage of not having near as much on coming runners through the middle miles. (a loop from miles 3.7 to 5.5). Made sure I had a easy start, but was still impressed with the early miles under 8:30 (who would think I'd say that years ago?). HR settled in around 146, so I tried to stay at that intensity. Was shocked to see a mile go by under 8, but was probably some nice downhills in there. The last 3 miles are so hard, as they are flat and you can see 100's meters ahead. I spotted a 60+ rival I had just edged out 2 years ago ahead around mile 6. I was closing and passed him (with some encouraging words I hope), following a young woman and suddenly was off course! Drat! the missed turn was only back about 50 meters, but my rival got by, so I had to repass, then just keep focused on those last few miles. Kept telling myself to focus on form and relax, and when I did I closed on those in front of me, but then mind would wander and form slipped. Pushed a bit more in the last mile, maybe too much as right hamstring gave up with 200 meter to go. Slowed considerably as I do not want any lasting damage.
Glad I was there, always good to see Dave Dunham (who won 50+, of course) and the ever entertaining Steve Peterson. Had 2 bowls of chili and won some cookies and a pair of "Rivah" gloves for my 3rd place.

Ran to NU track, and was told I could not run by fellow (he was watching a group of 5 do pushups). I said I would be only 10 minutes and stay in outside lanes, but still "No". Seemed overly pompous , and really wonder what they were up to. Over to DHS track, which was nice and empty and did 2x(200,200,400). Enough to keep the track training going but not enough to need a long recovery before Saturday.
