Twilight Trail Run at Bluff Point State Park

I did the Twilight Trail Run last night at Bluff Point - a beutiful spot, but some unpleasant weather. The temperature was cool (~50s for mid-May) with rain a wind. I completed the 7.4 mile course in 55:39 - good for a 7:32 pace. My mile splits were: 7:21, 7:31, 7:57, 7:54, 7:23, 7:32, 7:13 and 7:12 (2:46 min) for the last 0.4 mile. I wanted to run even splits - but the 3rd and 4th miles are very difficult - hills and tricky footing downhills. I felt like I did well for the 5th and 6th miles and then pushed hard for the last 1.4 miles - but failed to pass most of the people I thought I'd be picking off. In all, a good LT type of training run.
