First run along this route, taking the Cross-County Trail almost to its southern terminus at Occoqan River Park. Long downhill on the outbound meant a long ascent on the return.

Super-windy so I wore full sweatgear, which was about the right call. I was surprised I wasn't sucking worse on the uphill as my initial ascent seemed to be holding at about 132-135bpm, which I did not expect. Beginning was a bit harder than otherwise because it was so chilly. I was fully warmed up at the end, which might explain the burst of speed relative to a run of that perceived intensity.
