Back to this "Hard" business, after running another 3 miles with Kristi, at 10:00/mile pace, on her last leg. This time, the leg was longer (7.2 miles), and complicated by the fact that a large part of it was on gravel, which (1) is treacherous footing at night when you can't see where you're stepping, and (2) results in a lot of dust kicking up behind vehicles as they pass you, further obstructing your vision. I took a copy of the printed directions with me on this leg, and it was a good thing that I did, because I narrowly avoided a wrong turn on 221. At least the train didn't get in my way. I ran conservatively, to avoid getting lost or injured, finishing in 49 minutes (6:48/mile pace). Considering the conditions, I felt good about this, with just one more leg to go . . .
