Decided to switch the long run to today instead of tomorrow because my daughter is getting baptised tomorrow and I figured it would work out better this way. This long run felt a bit better than last weeks but not by much. I felt really good for the first three miles and was even able to pick up the pace to sub 8:00/mile for a couple miles but then something happened and I just started to run out of energy. I'm not really sure of the cause, it could be a number of things, the heat, light dinner, hydration. Well at least I got through the run without walking this week and was able to maintain a pace that I think I should be running for my long runs, I just don't think they should be this hard.
Time: 1:42:51 8:34/mile
