10.06 miles (07:48/mile)
Durham, North Carolina

After a hard day’s night volunteering at the Umstead 100-Miler, overslept the alarm, so had to run miles (gasp) alone…

Tried to pull a number of people in…(you know who you are)…but all were busy. Not sure why…already did the mileage…middle of the day…mileage already done…volunteering at other events…need a rest day…my daughter just got back…yard work…whatever the reason, folks were just not available.

In all seriousness (grin), the weather was beautiful and the conditions nearly ideal for a casual run. Started off super loose and tried, really tried, to stay loose. Partially succeeded.

Thanks to Whitney StCharles for keeping it in perspective after the fact!

Entry from a year ago was “That Was…Ambitious…” which was a twenty mile run, good until mile thirteen, at which point it felt apart. The pacing was disturbingly similar to today.
