Luke - 20.25

20.25mi, 2:39:29 (7:52)
Took the Ribbon Trail to Relentless Hills, and after a loop of that headed up Spring Boulevard to Ridgeline. Took Ridgeline over Mount Baldy, then went up Dillard to continue on Ridgeline to Fox Hollow, and down the hill to Rexius. Stopped at the top of Rexius for a cup of water and a PowerBar Energy Gel, then a quarter mile later started the hard part of the run: trying to do the last nine miles under seven minute pace. First mile and a half (on Rexius) was 10:10 (~6:45 pace), then went down to Amazon, vowing that if I couldn't do the planned six laps I'd at least go until one of them was over 8:00. Went 7:02, 6:59, 6:57, 6:52, 6:56, 6:42, and headed home to finish the nine in a total of 62:24 (6:56 pace).

p.s. I'm a beast.
