181: 8M in 1:36:38/12:05 Pace

My goal was to run at a 12:03 pace today, so I missed it by :02 seconds per mile, and :16 seconds total. I don't care much. I wasn't in great form out there. My hamstrings were stiff and hurt. It was unpleasantly windy at times.

To prepare for the race I have next weekend, I ran the loop clockwise, which is how the UAE Healthy Kidney 10K is configured. That made the hill to flat combinations totally different - and it felt somehow like there were more hills, though that's of course impossible! The Park path is a complete loop. Oh, brain, why are you such a frustrating muscle!
