Notes

Pretty decent run in non-ideal conditions. Very windy day, and the last 2.5 miles were basically straight into a very strong headwind. Physically, felt ok during the run overall -- left achilles was noticeable at times, but nothing problematic. Felt very strong for the few miles between Falls Bridge and the art museum (after returning to the Falls Bridge). Water every 20 min, Gu every 40 min (actually, vanilla PowerGel a few minutes before the run, vanilla Gu at 0:40, vanilla PowerGel at 1:20, and vanilla Gu at 2:00. Splits: 1:04.25 to far side of Falls Bridge, 11:06.45 to turnaround (third bench past Strawberry Bridge), 11:03.73 back to bridge, 58:49.37 to home (and split at the bench was only ~10:20 this time past it, so I definitely had picked up the pace here -- and continued to do so until the art museum).
