Ran with Aaron and JeffR this morning. Temps were a bit warmer then it has been the last few long runs. The other 2 guys were just going 13 today. And so the last 7 were solo. So that made it a bit rougher for me going it solo. For the most part we also had alot less stop and goes. Really wasn't much traffic for the first part at all. Was kind of debating about what pace I should run today. Since I was going 20 and that I was changing it up for faster training paces due to the 5k on Thur. Decided to shoot for sub 8:30 for the first 13 and then just hold on for the last 7 that I was running solo. Ended up starting to heat up after I dropped off the other 2 and mile 16 hill was just brutal. Running up 5400s with half of the next mile uphill too. The downhill came in the 18-9 with last mile somewhat flat. But really didn't recover very well after that mean hill at 16. With the first 20 of the year under my belt I feel pretty good though. Mile 1 8:58 Mile 2 8:27 Mile 3 8:33 Mile 4 8:10 Mile 5 8:06 Mile 6 8:20 Mile 7 8:13 Mile 8 8:18 Mile 9 8:36 Mile 10 8:31 Mile 11 8:11 Mile 12 8:30 Mile 13 8:35 AP 8:30ish TT 1:49:35
Mile 14 8:43 Mile 15 9:08 Mile 16 10:49 Mile 17 9:22 Mile 18 9:51 Mile 19 8:49 Mile 20 9:30 TT 2:55:49 AP 8:48
