SRRC run -- Sun. Mar. 13

Daylight Saving Time starts, so an hour short of sleep. Arg. And sore from yesterday, and still not digesting right. But what the hey, so off to DnD and find Nick and Bill there, and Ken and I arrive to make four. Ken's after double digits, so aim for a reverse Enfield with Brandywine/Sheffield. Feeling very stiff--Nick full of beans and Bill keeps him company, while I stick between them and Ken. Regroup at Brandywine, but Ken still slower, so Nick and Bill are ahead when they go off up Spring hill; I stay back with Ken and we go on past. Back to Allen, all the way on to Hamilton, and Ken starts to feel better, as I feel more and more sore. But keep going, and as we pass DPW, realise we're short on distance, so at Howard, keep going up Jackson -- only to hear Bill's voice from behind, "You bastards! I was going to catch you on Howard!" Much LOL. Go on up to town, staying ahead of Bill on the uphill, then together through town and back down 202--Bill heads back to rejoin Nick, and I finish the run w/ Ken, thus:

Time: 1:27:11
Distance: 10:52 miles
Pace:8:17s

Comment: Good gentle way out of some of the soreness. Start of another week, hopefully peak mileage. Not a very nice day, damp chill, England style. . .Roll on spring.
