16.21 miles in 1:59:43, average pace of 7:23/mi. Average HR of 161 bpm. Total ascent 2309 ft, total descent 2490 ft. Felt pretty good until the last 4 miles (mostly uphill), felt a little dehydrated. Satisfied with the run, especially with my energy levels being a little "off" this week. Sunny. 40's-low 50's (maybe), slight wind. Wore capris and a cotton t-shirt and long-sleeved shirt. Still felt overdressed starting at mile 7. Stripped down to my t-shirt at mile 10/11. Need to consider trying to start a cold run in shorts to see if I warm up (worried because I've done this twice in cool weather and never warmed up, but I like my legs to breathe). 7:41, 7:18, 7:15, 7:12, 7:01, 7:19, 7:10, 7:00, 7:03, 7:26, 7:23, 7:18, 8:02, 7:59, 7:38, 7:20, 1:29 Pre-run: slice of pumpkin spice chocolate chip bread and Clif bar (black cherry almond), glass of water. Mid-run: Roctane gel at mile 10. Water at mile 13.
