Leg 10

So glad to have the first leg behind me! Started leg 10 around 4pm and it was starting to get hot. About 2 miles into it the sun went back behind the clouds and it got pleasant again. Leg 10 is 5.2 miles completely on the Springwater trail in Gresham. Almost totally flat, which was nice. Finished it in right about 46 minutes , or about a 9 minute mile pace. 

We have a great van, a good mix of experienced (John is on his 9th HTC) and newbies (me, Carissa and Jenny are one our first).   As soon as Jenny and Bruce knock out their first legs we will hit a gym for a shower and grab dinner before heading out to our next exchange point. My next run should be around 2am. Woo hoo!
