Great morning run with Christie chasing the sunrise again. The route had about 1,400 feet of gain and it was just what I needed to shake off the dust of the race on Saturday, literally and figuratively. It was difficult to find any speed at the race because of the crazy terrain. The route today was hard pack trails without the slushy rocks. I managed a 6:30 pace for one of the middle miles which was nice.
The wind was howling in places and about blew us off the trail a few times. It was nice when it was at our backs. I told Christie it was just like it was at Boston two years ago :D
You are a freaking machine!!!!!!! It was nice to see you so recovered and having fun. I liked the leaping. :) But, just to clarify for the mortals reading this -- for "me" this was technical and hard to run fast!!! You are a billion lightyears better at this than me! Thanks for the run. It was fun! :)

I told Michelle the other day that in the same way she can't say no to me, I can't say no to you when you ask me to do difficult things. I appreciate the help! I want that BQ! I want to get better at the trails, want to get faster so I'm not struggling with cut offs and the only way to get any of those is HARD WORK! So - thanks for the help!

Scott, his pace would have been much nicer if I wasn't there making him wait around for me to catch up over and over. ;)

@Christie, I'm sure he wasn't too worried about it or else he wouldn't have invited you to see what the view's like at the mountain top. :-)

Thanks all. Mike, I was telling Christie i felt like I wasn't able to give it 100% on race day for some reason. This was the energy I should have been using to cut an hour off my time!!
