Route: I started at the downtown gym, and went out on the trails around Lake of the Isles and Cedar Lake. I added a couple weird out and back sections because I wanted to make sure I was over 10 miles for the run.
Weather: So much sun. But also, so much wind. It was about 10mph out of the south or southeast. At least it wasn't 20mph like Tuesday.
Wardrobe: Nike running capris, compression socks, a shirt and a quarter zip pull over. I also wore sunglasses.
Execution: So much winning. I tried to keep my heart rate in the low 140s. I'm getting a bit more aggressive with the "low heart rate". In the earlier runs, I'd try to keep myself in the high 130s, but this is much more fun. I kept my heart rate right where I wanted it. I got frustrated running into the wind, though much of that was in the beginning of the run when I still had mental energy to keep myself together.
Nutrition: I carried chews and water. I did drink some of the water, but didn't eat. This run was after breakfast and lunch.
Bonus: I mean, the weather is the bonus.
