7.8mi, 62:13, 1 DEC 08, Bagram, Afghanistan

Day 293 of the campaign.

Death Cab for Cutie, "Photobooth"

WX at 1530: 62 (17) DP 10 (-12) BP 30.15 (1021) ENE 7 RH 13

Odometer 2: 386.4mi

Z4.
Average/max heart rate = 168/178

This is perimeter run 55.

First afternoon run in a while, and it started out promising. What I didn't count on was having to run through all the dust kicked up by traffic departing at the end of day, and I certainly didn't count on a killer side stitch that showed up a few miles short of the finish. I was disappointed, since if it hadn't shown up, I think I might've gotten a good run on my personal record, but it's hard to go hard when you have a sharp pain in the ribs.

Passing other runners, though, is a definite motivator. This was very much apparent as I burned past other people on the road and along the sidewalk.

This was a good indicator of what I consider a fairly good tempo run, though.
