In town for the wedding, and a big dinner with red wine last night, so out with a purpose at 7:30. Road shoes, and long sleeves, cool but quite muggy; zig zag from hotel up a mile to the Park at 61st street, then stretch and get a digivice bearing. Run north on the east side, with some stops, but eventually find the Jackie K.O. reservoir (Marathon Man) and join the folks on that cinder trail, starting at about 91st. Some headwind on the westward bit (at the top) but warm up as I get about 3/4 round, so decide to do another lap, finally stopping clock at the machine house on the southern shore the second time I passed it. Here's that bit:
Time: 33:37
Distance: 4.78 miles
Pace: 7:02s
Then I ran back, having reset the device, but it lost signal once I was back in the streets, so approximately 2.5 miles @ 8:00 pace, adding to the 1 mile before the timed bit.
Good enough for a city day, and I was well warm after, and a bit tired.
