Trail Running 4:07:34 18.01 mi (13:45 / mi) +911m 11:53 / mi
ahr:151 max:186 shoes: Salomon Speedcross 4 - Navy
Last big training run.
The good:
Physically I felt good, even with the heat. I took it slow and steady and kept myself in a feel good place without over revving. Transitioned to walk running about halfway through.
The bad:
I got bored. uh oh. Also, about half an hour after dehydration and electrolyte imbalance hit me hard. During the race i will have more access to water (ran out near the end of this run with no chance to refill). Also did a poor job planning snacks and food: breakfast at 5:30, ran 930-2 without a heavy snack.
Good reminders for the race.

Was thinking of doing speed, but then wasn't feeling it, so decided not to. Then ended up speeding up to a good pace anyway that felt pretty good.

2 Days of Brabant,
Brouwhuisseheide Nature Reserve,
Vleirden, Netherlands
6.8 km, 24 c
Day 2 was in a different section of the same park, so I new exactly what to expect. I did a better job staying focused and having plans from the start of each leg, which meant i was able to push the pace pretty well, even throwing a few sub 10 minute miles! Unfortunately, this led to a huge mistake on number 17. I got distracted leaving 16 because I lost by backup EMIT punch card, and somehow arrived at a very different trail intersection than i thought, and took a while to figure that out. Other than that it went really smooth and was a lot of fun. It was even hotter so I was dragging, but there was 1 control with some much welcomed water!
Talked to a guy from Belgium for a bit after who could see three different o maps out of the windows of his house!
