I think the Hawaii race will involve a lot of twisty singletrack. Or maybe doubletrack, but definitely twisty. It's got a fair bit of climbing, but less than last weekend and seems to be more of a constant up and down. Wanting to simulate that kind of running, I naturally ended up in the watershed. I did 3 tempo-ish efforts. First two had a lot of flat/slightly up and down singletrack. In retrospect, could've been faster on them. Didn't stack up as well on the leaderboards as I thought I would. I felt pretty strong when things opened up, like on the Bon Tempe dam. Running fast on singletrack is a different kind of hard. Not so aerobically taxing. Finished with the Yolanda descent, which was pretty tricky. Again, could've been more aggressive, but it was ok. This was a fun workout. What wasn't fun was how my Achilles is feeling. It requires at least a mile to warm it up each run. And the discomfort never really goes away now. And on a run like this, with a decent bit of climbing and technical running, it's starts to hurt again by the end. So I'm fit, but really limping to the end of this season.
