Started the run in Sheridan, Indiana at 7:13 am and ran south towards downtown Indianapolis. This was a supported FKT with a family member biking with me and handing me water and gels. Portions of the Monon Trail were under construction, namely after crossing E 16th St. This was a known factor and there was an official detour in place that routed around a segment of the trail. This resulted in a slightly longer distance as I ran the detour named 'the Monon Loop' and additionally ran a section of the detour twice and needed to retrace my steps and double back after second guessing the correct direction to take and being given wrong directions by a passerby. Set out hoping to run a solid 7:30 min/mile pace, but felt strong from the get-go and locked in to a new pace. Surprised myself by running my fastest 26.2 within the whole run with a time of 2:56:02. Beautiful trail and beautiful day, with crisp sub 40F weather to begin! Smiles for miles and had a lot of fun this morning.
