Grinder "Fall Creek Run-Around" loop with lc

April 16, 2016 (Morning)

Exercise Type: Run

Weather: 50s, cool but sunny

Comments:
Did this run with Lewis, which was very ambitious: basically a 20-mile loop around Fall Creek Reservoir, and fast. We got out harder than comfortable and - quite honestly - I'm not sure I ever got comfortable. Big, but "soft" rollers throughout this loop, with some shorter periods of flat running.

Wore the Salomon blue shoes...and they were BRUTAL on the heavy gravel on the north side of the lake, which was annoying. Very little traffic, which is nice.

I grinded for about 15.5 miles...then let Lewis got to slow down. I'd just had my fill. But even after that, the HR stayed up there.

Managed to average 140s to mid-150s, never going significantly above 160. Pretty tough run, though!
