10 miles, hard
65 degrees, sunset

It was time for another tempo run on the CCT in preparation for Cherry Blossom! I love this workout. This year, Klim, Dirk, Jimmy, Mike, and I ran 2.5 miles hard down the trail to simulate the first 2.5 miles of the race this weekend. Klim, Dirk and I took it out in 5:04, 5:03, and finished in 12:32. SOLID. I probably ran at the threshold of my ability, and it was slightly downhill, so this workout is probably a notch faster than I will be running on Sunday.
