Time: 38:41
Pace: 9:36 min/mi
Comments: This is the first of two "regular" runs this week just to keep myself ready. Ate a TON of carbs over the weekend and could really feel the energy payoff today. I spent most of this run tapping the brakes to keep from going over race pace.
The heat is going to stay stupid until I leave for Connecticut. Which, is part of what I planned, I guess. It would be nice to get a chilly morning to prime for raceday but now I'm being nitpicky.
