PLAN: 5mi
RAN: 5mi @ 8:30-8:50-9:40-9:00-8:30=9m/mi
LOC: Greene Valley
EL: 6-7+
Did something new today - Greene Valley was great! I am kind of proud of my creativity in mapping this "Figure-Eight" course to make the most (5mi) out of the forest preserve loops. This trail is interesting as the sections are shorter, twistier, and much hillier than Herrick.
Seemed like there were lots of uphills in the beginning and either because of that, or just unprovoked muscle cramping, I took the third mile REALLY easy (9:40) - BUT - it's still 9:40! That's a damn good pace for an "easy" mile! The end seemed all downhill, or maybe it was unprovoked muscle de-cramping, but the running got really good - 8:30. I am so happy!
