Run (Trails) 3:36:40 [3] 16.6 mi (13:03 / mi)
ahr:146
Pine Haven trails with full MS-1 pack.
Felt better than last week when I ran this long, but last 40 minutes or so were still a bit of a sufferfest and WAY slower. Fell fairly hard about 10 minutes into the 3rd lap and had to walk for a couple minutes to shake it off - my troublesome (right) knee went right down in the dirt, but the trail was pretty soft there. Despite this, there was no knee pain today! WOO! Also, ran in my new Inov8 trail shoes. These were much more appropriate than the barefoot shoes. They are still quite lightweight/minimal, but they do offer more protection. Not sure if it's really enough. I plan to try them out next week at the race. No blisters, though a few spots got a little warm on my right forefoot on lap 2. They never got past that stage, though.
Lap 1: 5.75 miles 1:07
Lap 2: 5.75 miles 1:12
Lap 3: 5.1 miles 1:17 (ouch!)
