This was the run to cap off a very hot and busy June. This used to be the 4 miler which has been a virtual event the last 2 years. It helps the running program at the women's correctional center. Covid restrictions kept us from using the 4 mile course that loops around the prison yard where the inmates used to cheer on the runners as we went by. We could pick from either 20 40 or 60 minutes of seeing how many loops we could rack up. The loops were just under 400m on and open field near UAA by Goose Lake. I opted for the 60 because it was time to start thinking about longer workouts, tempo runs, training as I shift to some longer races later in the season. In the 60 minutes the overall man and woman who went the furthest got a nice gift box from Chugach Chocolates and gift cards from Wild Scoops-YUM
Leonid and I both won the 60 minute finishing just under 9 miles. I've really enjoyed doing this one over the years. I missed in 2019 because it was moved from late July to late June and I was in Moscow by then.
