8-23 Siltcoos Lake Trail: The Devil had Nothing On Me ( I had sleep)

Ran at the Siltcoos Lake Trail. 1 loop, 4 miles, about 30:45, similar to my uphill 5k time. This run felt surprisingly good. I felt strong the entire way. Strong proof that sleep is a huge factor in performance. Before when I've ran at Siltcoos, I've kind of imagined that the hill was an obstacle placed before me by the devil. It kind of motivated me to overcome it, I guess. Anyway, I defeated the devil with sleep. I also probably could have run this faster, but Travis, Joe, and Jacob ran fairly slow on the down hill section. I like to zoom down the hill.
