AM: Demen's Landing in St. Pete with Anthony, Drew, Sean, and Lee for my last (and first in over a month and a half) long run. First 10 miles were 7:15 or so. At mile 10 we threw in a 5-mile marathon pace tempo that ranged from 6:05-6:15 paces. I haven't practiced that pace at all let alone at 10 miles into a run, so it felt pretty terrible. Last 5 miles after that were slower, but not really as awful as I thought they'd be.

Drew really helped my confidence today entering the end of this "marathon training," so I appreciated the boost- I sincerely needed it.

Your results speak for themselves, Mike. Let's try to connect for an easy run before Spacecoast.

Thanks Drew, I definitely think we should! I'm planning on only doing a couple more of the longer distance runs and will be flying up north for the week before the marathon (and flying back the day before-yikes!), so I'll have to call you and coordinate. I won't be out this Sunday either, since I have a "race."
