Continued from day 1 activity write-up...

Started where I left off last night at 5:00:29 AM - this section is officially open an hour before sunrise which is at 5:59. Today's planned mileage is 67.5 and I have until 11 PM to do it before segment 14 closed for the night. After today, most of the hills and technical trails will be done. I started moving at a steady pace, but it was warmer than yesterday and my breaks everytime I met up with the crew keep eating into my into my target times and I had to consider the possibility of not meeting my target pace for the day. The second half of today was mostly on paved sections my feet are starting to take a beating from the hard paved surface. While I was moving well on natural surfaces, my pace on paved sections is slower than I anticipated. There was some overcast and a couple of drizzles which was nice for a bit, but it got warm again when the sun came out. Going through Cherry Creek state park around sunset, I realized I won't be able to finish up section 14 before it closed for the night at 11 PM. Finished the day at 10:46 PM around halfway point of section 14 at the intersection of Chambers and Yale. Today was a little behind schedule which means I'll have to do 2.3 miles longer tomorrow. Sections 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13, and half of 14 are done.
