SRRC long run -- Sun. Nov. 21

Showed up at DnD almost late (early start, but delayed at last minute by R breaking bottle in basement!) to find Bill, Andy, Amy, and Nick (Ken still in Florida). Bill immediately suggests 14 miles, and I think he's kidding-but no, and he's got a nice route planned, so I cave and join him. We all go together at first, along 202 to Howard, then up Jackson to common, back to 202 and down Jabish, then up old Enfield to Juckett. Andy, Amy and Nick turn around at gate at top of Juckett, and Bill and I go on: trail all the way to Gate 8 lane, then up to 202 and cross; head to Knight's Pond and down to Munsell, then back to 202 and straight along all the way to town center, then down Maple, under 202 and finish at DnD. Even longer than Bill planned:

Time: 1:58:54
Distance: 14.22
Pace: 8:22s

Comment: perfect day for it and a nice easy pace round an excellent route -- felt great once I was warmed up and am very glad I went along! Bill's GPS combined with mapmyrun to register 14.5 miles, but I'll take the shorter distance.
