Running 28:53 [2] 3.11 mi (9:17 / mi) +17ft 9:14 / mi
shoes: Hoka Mafate Speed
Three laps around the path at the Webster Rec Center, before playing pickleball.
Puzzled as to how AP calculates climb. This certainly wasn't a hilly course by any means, but there is a noticeable dip and then rise in the trail about halfway through the loop. According to the elevation trace, this amounted to 15-20 feet of climb, and I ran it three times. But AP says my total climb was 17 feet. Seems like it should be somewhere in the 50-60 foot range.

Pickleball 35:00 [2]
Attempted to play pickleball after running. First I had to sit around for about 15 minutes to stop sweating and catch my breath. Then I finally decided to play. I didn't play terrible but not great; kind of tough to tell due to the uneven competition and partner. But I wasn't having a lot of fun, so I called it quits after 2 games.

Running race 27:27 [4] 3.1 mi (8:51 / mi) +82ft 8:38 / mi
shoes: Asics Gel Kahana 7
Javier Ortiz Memorial 5K. Associated with the Puerto Rican Festival, but no longer on the same weekend nor at the same location as the PR Fest. This started at Seneca Park. All on roads, no trails unfortunately. But nice course.
Trailsnail and I both were shocked to find we had each won our respective age groups! And it wasn't a tiny field like the St. Rita 10K a few weeks ago. HOWEVER, until I see the full results, I won't know how many were in our age groups. So it could well be that we both won because we were the only entrant!
Edit: Results available. Trailsnail WAS in fact the only person in her age group. But her time was good enough for 1st place in the 50-59 group (8 runners), and good enough for 3rd place in 40-49 (17 runners) and 2nd place in 30-39 (19 runners). And she would have WON the 20-29 group! (12 runners) So she beat a LOT of people!
There were 13 people in my age group, so I actually had to beat a few. Unlike trailsnail, though, I wouldn't have placed in the top 3 in any of the younger age groups.

Running 28:30 [3] 3.0 mi (9:30 / mi)

HJ trail run with trailsnail. My GPS refused to acquire any signal so I was relying on trailsnail's report of our distance and pace. And I don't remember the pace exactly, either ...
