Ten-mile course in Amherst. A classic course, site next month of the New England 10K Champs, run it many times, both racing and training. Would be flat for an orienteering course, but hilly for a road race, especially the long hills at mile 3 and mile 9. Certified course, nice to see the distance checks out just right.
Ran with Dave, real nice to have company. Cold morning, about 12F, but sunny and hardly any wind so exceedingly pleasant. Except for the hills, though I croaked less than I feared, especially on the last one, hung in well even though by that point the legs were getting tired. This is a long run for me these days.
So overall, great, was figuring something between 85 and 90.
By the way, my record at the 10-miler:
1980 (age 35): 65:11
1982 (37): 63:56
1984 (39): 66:32
1985 (40): 66:36
1987 (42): 63:25
1988 (43): 62:27
1997 (52): 66:20
1998 (53): 63:57
2002 (57): 72:50
2004 (59): 71:16
2005 (60): 70:21
2008 (63): 78:31
Best was 1988, best age-adjusted was probably 1998. Was in charge of the results many years between 1988 and 1997, a good excuse not to run.

And then back to the cars at the Amherst Women's Club. Legs were dead.
12 PM
Note
And then SMAC's (Sugarloaf Mountain Athletic Club) annual meeting. I've been a member of the club for over 30 years. It's added a lot of enjoyment to my running training and racing, a nice complement to orienteering though always taking second place.
And even got the club's "Most Outstanding Runner" award for 2009. Nice surprise.
