4:03 - slight uphill
3:52
4:02 - started to get a bit of a stitch, but it eased off
3:50
I suspect the variance in some of the splits had more to do with the exact placement of the markers. Started to get slightly ahead of Rachel around 4-5 km. Apparently did not pull ahead too much more than initially, as she saw me the whole time and finished just behind me :). Finally broke 40 mins!

C • ripper2 4

Short run and strides in my new racing flats.

C • Wow 5

4*5 faster... cold sleety weather.

Playing / running a few false starts with Sam's dog... that despite playing with me, would not go for an orienteering loop with me.

Wussed out a bit when I found the flooded area near the lake, and got a bit discouraged by the old map (several new trails).

Warm up, + some strides on the track.

4 times 5 minutes at the prescribed pace of 91s per lap:
First three around 90 second laps (4:30 at 1200), last one tried to hold onto Rachel a bit more so 89s laps (4:27 at 1200). Got to around 1333m.
2:35,2:44,2:41 rest

Then 2 200m runs dragging myself behind Rachel (~37-38s)

C • Dragging? 1

Rests, silly walks / lunges, and warm down
