I try and do my "long" run on Sunday, and went a bit uptempo during the 9.84 miles. I have a loop that is 1.23 miles down at the Little Valley soccer fields and schools. I wanted to run quick today, and break my PR of 71 mins 22 secs there.
I ran 8 loops, and my per loop times were: 8.30.46, 8.39.24, 8.37.50, 8.31.41, 8.34.02, 8.30.09, 8.33.10, and 7.57.13 on my last one. I didn't feel so good on my first 3, but after that i was into a good rhythm and felt ok. My total time was 67.52, new PR, pace of about 6.52 per mile. It is all on grass with so-so footing, so i was very pleased.
