I met up with the Green Mountain Athletic Assocaitoin for its weekly Sunday morning long run.  This might become a regular routine for me.  It was nice to run with a group.  We ran out & back on the Burlington bike path.  I may have bitten off more than I could chew by attempting 14 miles.  I think 10 miles would have been a better bet.

I overslept and had to race out the door without ingesting much fluids or food.  I felt really good through about 10 miles.  The pace was very easy, 8:15/mile up to that point.  The last 5k was tough.  I slowed to a shuffle for the last mile.  14.09 miles.  1:59:48. 8:30/mile. 153 BPM!
