Running (Trail) 46:16 [4] 6.75 mi (6:51 / mi)
slept:6.5
In Grandview, MO at the southern end of Longview Lake Park. From the ballfields I picked up the trail and ran the loop at the end then went north to mile mark 3. Turning around I came back to the ballfields. I hadn't run here before so when I saw a hefty guy walking the trail the other direction I asked him how far the trail went. He described the loop being 3 miles--it was just over two (14:03). Going north with the sun low, the trail was basically flat with open areas. The lake bed was dry here so I never saw it while running. Available mile splits: 6:45, 6:51, 6:50, 6:41. I pushed and the upper 80's F or low 90;s F heat and humidity took it's toll. I was pleased to run this well as it was another sign of improvement.
