Run - Trail (Shafran) 20:02 [5] 3.75 km (5:21 / km) +65m 4:55 / km

early evening - passing thunderstorm winding down - still raining, but sun coming in at low angle - some harsh contrast through wet glasses. Ran the loop CCW as hard as I could, trying to come in under 20 minutes. Just missed. Although legs felt stiff on roads, once I hit the trail it was like I had a new pair of legs - just felt really, really good to fly on the trail, even though there was a fair amount of dodging puddles and low-hanging branches wet with the rain.
