Strawberry Mansion - 11 miles (560 total)

11.43 miles
1:27:46
7:40 pace

Feeling pretty good today - as usual, the only part that feels stressed is my lower legs. Did not feel the need to hold back the pace. After 2 miles, thought I felt a sharp pebble in my shoe, so paused to take it out - was actually an old rusty safety pin sticking through the sole. Another quarter inch and I might be looking at tetanus shots.

Went just past the Strawberry Mansion Bridge; a few hundred yards farther than last time. It might have been smart to do a shorter run today, and save some wear and tear for a longer run Sunday, but gave in to the temptation to break the 560-mile mark.

Might do a short run with Chris on Sunday instead - he has been letting his ankle heal for about six weeks, but has been doing some hardcore biking on the weekends.
