94:17 - 9:25 pace

Jeeni and I drove out to Forest Park in the late morning to do this run. Neither of us had been there before, so it was a bit of an adventure to find out where exactly the trailhead was and whatnot. It's a pretty neat place, I'm not sure how I made it this long without having gone there before, haha. The run went pretty well. My left achilles was pretty tight starting out, but that loosened up and then my knees got tight. Her calves were bothering her pretty bad, and since she's a toe runner she was thinking it was due to all the rocks and gravel on the trail.

She mentioned as we ran that we should come back on a Sunday (the "cross-training" day) and go on a hike there. I didn't need much convincing on that suggestion, lol. After the run we found a deli in downtown PDX on 23rd and took the sandwiches over to Park St and ate. We were getting a bit chilly since it was cloudy at that point, so we took the eclair we got for free (because they forgot about our order and we were patient and waited for a long time) back to her apartment to eat. Good stuff.
