Fri - 7/18 - 6.8 miles, 1:19

Enterprise. Started at the visitor's center with the intention of doing the Still Hollow course. My goal today was to improve on my time from last week, a 12:28 pace. It was raining, although cool, but I still started off slow for some reason. My first mile was only a 10:37 pace, which was the same time for mile one last week, although at the time I didn't know that. Mile two starts 3 continuous miles with some rolling hills. Today I ran more of them than last week. When I came to the turn that would have continued the Still Hollow course, I decided to run back to the Hidden Lake start, adding about a half mile, which would then bring me back on course. Around the lake I inadvertently took a wrong right turn, instead of left to Deer Hollow, and came back out at the Hidden Lake start. Instead of coming back to the car, I looped around again, then back. Finished the last mile under 9 minutes. Last week's finishing had been slow, so it felt good to finish strong. Today's outing was 6.8 miles in 11:43 pace.
