Ran up the canyon again, ran the 8 mile loop. Had a tail wind going up, which was nice because I always feel like I have to work hard when its in my face, so mentally I just thought it was pushing me up the canyon. 30:58 for the 4 miles going up. Figured I should be less than that going down even with a tail wind. 27:45 for the 4 miles coming down. Worked hard on a couple of the miles. Had one section that I hit 5:07 min/mile, wish I could hold that for several miles. Anyway, good run. Pleased with the speed. Total time 58:43/7:19 average pace. Splits: 7:28, 7:36, 7:55, 7:49, 7:00, 6:47, 7:18, 6:42. YEAH, two miles under 7.
Have a great day.
