Run 5/1

I did my longest run in quite some time: 8.5 miles at the Redmond Watershed in 1:31. It was busy - I passed a horse rider, two families hiking in for a picnic, a mountain biker, a mom and her young daughter running, and a group that looked like a high school track team getting in a workout.

My nutrition experiment was to eat one gel at 5 miles, to see how it digested. I drank plenty of water with it, and it was fine. Good news!
