Small race report: I knew that Pete had tried to run this and that the FKT had been approved recently. Mileage this season has been consistent and steady, with Sunday long runs on the trails pretty much every week in the summer. Given that I took my first day off in about 4 months, the time seemed right to bring down the volume and put in a longer run. I looked up the Interloken trail and it seemed like a doable fast LR. I definitely did underestimate that trails are hard to run really fast even without substantial elevation change. This effort was a bit under marathon effort and I still didn't break 8 minute pace. The plan was to go out conservatively for the northbound section, evaluate the situation at the turnaround and  then decide what to do southbound. I hit the turnaround at ~ 1:35ish and was 5 minutes under FKT pace. The return has a decent amount of climbing and I went through a bad path around miles 15-17. But once I crossed the multiple meadows and farms, I felt fairly good and found more strength with about 4 miles to go. Pushed a little harder and came in under 1:30 for the back half. The one downside was going off trail for a minute or so around the lake and that cost me a sub-3. Oh well, I'll take this. Trail adventures will continue at different locations as long as they're in good condition!

Strava stupidity: What is weird is I somehow didn’t get the northbound and out and back segment but got the south bound segment in spite of running the exact same route. In fact, I ran longer on the northbound since I got lost.
