After races the last 2 weekends returned to the WHW torture chamber for a 20 mile recovery run. Starting at Drymen set out towards Balmaha and a few miles beyond, target Cashel and then back. About 3800' of ascent.
Set off at an easy pace about 12 min miles or 4 hours, slowed on the up hills and turned in 2 hrs 12. Slower on the way back 2:29 for a 4:41:06 total.
Walked a lot of the uphills and cruised down Conic, not too fast as only had road shoes on, just let gravity do its job. Nice run in perfect running conditions, but about 5 miles too far, preferrence would have been under 4 hours.
