I went back out to the balloon loop trail run, same as last Sunday, but big difference, it was about 20 degrees cooler, what a nice day. When i finished the 82 minute run, it was 70 degrees, at the start, it was about 66 degree. I only ran this 9.7 mile version of this trail run once before, and ran 84.11. I had no intention of running hard and between 15 mins and 28 mins felt like quitting, i was feeling light headed, and just not good, but eventually came around and set a PR, 82.32, or about 8.32 per mile.
My splits, at the Y 15.08, at the back 28.12, downhill curve 37.25, back to the Y in 43.36, at the back 55.56, curve at 64.42, back to the Y at 70.58, 90 degree turn at 74.42, and finished in 82.32. I had to deal with probably 15-20 mountain bikers in the last 10 mins.
