Long Run - 16 Mile @ 7:54/mile

Today I did my first long run since my Ironman a couple weeks ago. The plan was to run at 8:00/mile pace. I met up with the Las Vegas Marathon training team for our weekly long run. Most of the team is training to run the Half Marathon and so their goal was 7 miles… at about a 9:30/mile pace.

Fortunately for me, Michelle was in the group. Since she’s a former NCAA Nationals Quarter Mile Runner, she’s got some speed in those legs. And, since she’s almost as crazy as me, she’s always willing to run faster and further than her training plan may suggest. So, I got a running partner willing to run at least the first half of my workout at the pace I was shooting for.
