Tubbs Memorial 8-mile route, 1:08:03, pace 8:30. Sure seemed like a faster pace than that! This was a very tough run with Cap'n RB, starting and finishing at his boat. It is hilly, with a total elevation change of 275 feet. We did stop to walk up the Main Street stairs, and a few times for water & gel. But we really raced the last mile, especially the last 2/10 mile, full sprint. It's hard to take it easy when running with RB, because we're both a bit competitive and we're so evenly matched. So was this a good run for tapering? Maybe not. No more like this, except the MMRF 5k race next Sunday. No pains!
