Z3.

This was a discipline run. If I didn't go out, then I knew it would lead on the road to ruin, so to speak.

I really need to start laying off the chow. I've been eating a large breakfast and large dinner since I've been getting here, and combined with eating an MRE for lunch, it's starting to add up. Given the dictum that I'm a fat man in a thin man's body (one that's been repeatedly proven over years and years), the importance of leveling caloric intake with expenditure remains relevant...

But it was faster, principally because of RH and also because of temperature. That 12 degrees from the last run made a difference. That should be no surprise. The trick is mostly one of figuring out what it feels like, because after being geared for humidity, you just never know...but being able to hold right at 8-minute pace is encouraging. For now, at least.

Based on that and being used to altitude, I should be able to consistently hold this pace if not slightly faster.
