Getting my groove on

Best laid plans and all I started late. I headed out the same route I ran several weeks ago, good for changing terrain and a couple of good climbs. I found a good pace and my stride felt easy so I just went for a long run. I took along the north face bottle fanny pack and what seemed like a good idea really sucked towards the end. It has great ease of drinking and carries a shitload of goodies but the constant bouncing and rubbing beat my lower back to the point of serious pain. So it can stay home from now on. Yikes. All in all I wasn't nearly as dead as I was feeling late into the run. I kept my pace pretty well aside from a couple of slow climbs. 2:10:45 ~ 25.4km, 5:09 per km.
