Trail Half Marathon. About 2 miles on paved road. Otherwise single track - at times fast and soft at times rocky, rooty, etc.
Low turnout. Simultaneous with 5k, 10k, and Marathon. Lots of 5k kids and families. Fun fest with live music, picnic etc, but festive portion got rained out, so instead racers steamed up the Trust lodge/meeting house / library inside.
Good race, tagged along with a youngster to about mile 9, then slowly lost him - he ended up beating me by 1 minute.
4 th overall of around 40 - 50 entrants. First and only in M60-69.

Run to work, usual way. What a difference cool dry weather makes! Was energized the whole run and still not sweating too much. Shaved off a minute of my previous times.

Running home, but not the direct way. Couldn't resist buzzing around in this beautiful weather. < 60 F and very dry - sun low on the horizon.
Through CW -NW - a bit off trail to check how the new orchard is doing, then the S of Oyster River to W Foss Farm, then one (extra) loop by the shelter and home - a drink and over to pay mortgage.
A good day to get some milage in.

Trail running 48:58 [3] 5.23 mi (9:22 / mi) +60m 9:02 / mi
shoes: New Balance MT 910 sz 9

I have been having classical plantar fasciitis symptoms in my right heel, so was wondering weather I should run at all. But frequent stretching throughout the day alleviated the symptoms, and I did not feel anything during the run. I wanted to do about 5 miles: Back trails to Griffith Dr., then Surrey Lane, counterclockwise on the bike trails to Thompson farm N field, then back home the usual via Shelter and Spruce Wood. And extra detour around the Hole.

The cool evening was absolutely refreshing - barely felt exhausted -ran the last half in near-dark to dark conditions with the small headlamp with near-dead batteries.
