 Less Windy Faught
Very similar weather as yesterday, although the wind was about five miles an hour less and a little more out of the north. Felt a bit colder starting out but after a couple of miles the wind felt cool and not uncomfortable. Didn't do much over the first three miles but picked up the pace after that. Picked up a strong tailwind heading south from Faught and got some good speed going. Dogs either weren't out today or had no interest in chasing since my speed was in the mid-twenties in the dog sprint zone. Turned back into the back nine with an average around a half mile over yesterday's time. Started to lose ground in the headwind but was able to turn it around in the last two miles to finish a full mile an hour faster than my last effort. The lungs had a good burn going at the finish and it felt kind of good.
