Comments:
Running a bit late to practice after a long drive to and from the Lotto Market, Lew dropped me off and we realized at the last minute I'd need to run home. It also became clear I should lead the longest group on a steady run without trails. Took Cole Huh, George of STA and eventually Swift of STA joined us. Wesley Heights via Cathedral Ave, Spring Valley via Glennbrook and 49th, AU Park via Yuma and finished on Wisc Ave. Solid effort with a few noticeable hills. After chatting with Jim for awhile, I set off for home. Pace worked down slowly from over 8 to 7:36 for the final mile. It's reassuring to know that even though my feet were achy and legs were tired, a 50 year old Sasquatch is still stronger than a 50 year old Wombat.
