Long run. 18 mile loop to Yucaipa, down to HWY 38, over to Mentone and back home. Felt pretty good today. High today was 106 degrees, so the last 40 minutes of my run were starting to get warm. Last night I didn't want to do a long run at all. But I found that the anticipation of a long run is worse than actually doing a long run, and I actually really enjoy being out and running a long time. But I sure do miss running buddies. What I wouldn't give to have someone to run with even for half of a long run!
2:24:46 overall time, 8:03 pace overall.
