divas run at the old mount wilson trail today
we were mostly going to be on the mount wilson toll road.
i was going to stick with heather, annie and tam today
at henniger flats, waiting for my friends to go potty
it was a gorgeous hike up. 8 miles up . 3743' elevation gain.
annie and i ran the first two miles down together; i had a tough time catching up to her. she was going around a 9-9:30 pace. a bit fast, but not too fast considering it was all downhill. i made sure to keep up.
after around 2 miles of going down, i passed her. i expected her to still be right behind me, but she must've slowed down considerably. i told myself i would push as hard as i could going down. let's FLY!
if memory serves me right, it was around 2:52 to get to the top. which then means around 1:25 to get back down.
i never stopped my watch, so a lot of the time included stops for pictures and waiting for tam to catch up with us so we could all stick together!
my 15th mile was 7:50. WHAT?! i've never had a split that fast -- even running downhill.
i guess that's why my calves were tired afterwards. =)
