Re-run of the Arboretum event from June. I wanted to be clean today, and keep moving. I did well at moving. One small bobble on 10. Then, as I was approaching 15, I saw that I could possibly break 39 minutes (for 10 min/k). So I pushed really hard.
Mike and I both knocked off work a bit early today, so we went for a nice bike ride together. I felt I was pushing harder than last time, Mike felt it was easier. Was he right because his HR was lower? Or was it cooler, so his HR was not a good guide? Was I right, that the perceived effort was harder, but I was tired and an easy effort felt hard?
Did a little memory O on west campus. I also ran as fast as I could between controls. Would stop to catch my breath, spend a few seconds looking at the map, then take off again.

Trails at Clinton. It sprinkled off and on on my way out, but rained pretty much the whole way back. Heavy tree cover meant I didn't get too wet and the trails stayed firm
