I did my mountain loop today.....a good ways toward Mt. Baldy.......I gain about 1,400 feet in elevation the first 9 miles......as you can see by the early splits.....there is some mean climbing.....a tough route physically but a gorgeous run in the mountains...a bit warmer then expected....should have gone shirtles but not to bad....76 degrees at the end of the run.

MTD= 50.0
YTD=1,080.1
LTD=69,420.7

First run longer then 13 miles since the OC Marathon in January.......felt pretty good.......all things considered
A littleTWW run history note.....the 54th run of 20 miles or longer since I did my first 20 miler...actually a 20.8 miler on 12/31/83....in a time of 2:30:46......7:14 pace.....that run was done in prep for my first marathon.....a 3:03:03 on January 15th, 1984.
At the time I did the 20.8 miler is was a new long record...breaking my previous long run best of 16.2 miles done on June 17th, 1982.....in a time of 2:15:03.....8:20 pace......just one second off my pace today.....see...I have only slowed down by one second in 26 years......if only....this has been a TWW run history moment......now it is time get back to my Dodgers.
