From field house to president's circle and then 9.6 with James (campus to 27th south, up to 2000, back along 21st and then foothill, through upper campus, and back down). 9.8 total in 63:39 with a lot of climb for a road run, so a pretty hard effort considering my poor current fitness. Also, mapmyrun lists it as 10.04, so we must have done a REALLY good job of cutting corners. I took ibuprofen, but I'm starting to think that I don't need it much anymore. In any case, my hip didn't hurt and only felt marginally off balance at one point in the first half of the run (good for the 2nd half). Low point of 4428', high point of 4849' with some roll, and yet MapMyRun manages to claim 387' of gain? Even the high point minus the low point is more than that, discountint all roll. Try more like 500'+. Anyway, this was a good run, roughly similar effort to my pretty hard run on Monday. I'll take tomorrow off and then I think I'm going to race a trail 15k on Saturday. I have 2 hours to decide and sign up, so I better get on that...
