8 - 1,923 ft - 1:21 on feet.

Revisited the 3 mile time trial this morning up Farmington Canyon and the singletrack. It has been a month since my last go at it. I was hoping to have improved over the last month. If not, what have I been doing? Turned out well. There was a head wind again, but maybe slightly less than last time. About the same conditions.

Right from the get go I knew my legs were feeling stronger. I figured I could keep mile 1 under 10 minutes. Miles 2 and 3 are then on the single track. Happy to have been faster on each of the 3 miles. I was not as spent at the end as I was last time either. All good signs. Now on to tomorrow's mid-long run and going back-to-back on Saturday with a long(er) run.
