I had a really good run this morning. Ate a little pre-run carbs and off I went. Kept it at a comfortable pace for the first 14 miles (AP of 8:30-8:40) and the last 5 I increased the pace finishing the last 4 miles around 7:50. I had a hammer gel and a granola bar during the run with water and gatorade. I felt really good and even finishing my legs felt pretty fresh. It is runs like this that really give me a confidence boost for my marathon coming up in February.
AP: 8:30 according to the watch, but I had to stop a couple times due to phone calls and once to stretch a little so I think my real AP was around 8:25.
