Another long run today. This was probably my best long run. I only took 2 quick bathroom stops and I kept getting faster and faster. Once again, first 7.5 miles were slightly uphill and I averaged 8:33 pace, which was a lot faster than last week. I decided to listen to music today and although I don't think I could do it every time, it was a nice change today and helped the run go a lot faster. Miles 10-20 were all under 7:30 pace with 7 of those miles near or under 7 minute pace. Considering the hills at the start and the last 1.5 miles, I am super excited about this run today.
2:33:19 overall time, 7:40 average pace.
And the laps just for my own records: 8:41, 9:15, 8:10, 8:00, 8:14, 8:33, 9:01, 7:57, 7:36, 6:41, 6:45, 6:45, 6:50, 6:40, 7:07, 7:00, 7:29, 7:33, 7:21, 7:33.
