Ran on the LPT with a good group.  Kam, Tara, Mark, Allie, James, Jake, Andrea, Cam and Emily.  I was definitely out of my league.  The plan was to run 8 miles then 2 at 6:45, 1 easy then another 2 at 6:45 and finish up with an easy mile.  Temperature was perfect but it was windy and threatening to rain.  Started into the wind wo we would have the wind at our backs for the faster miles.  Pace felt really good and the miles went by quickly.  Amazing how running in a group makes the time go by.  First set of quicker miles felt great.  Ran them both in 6:44.  The next set were a little quicker and felt harder than they should have.  My splits were 6:39 and 6:41 and I fell behind the group by a couple of seconds on the last mile.  During the cool down mile, the rain really started to come down.  I had a lot of fun during this run.  Definitely a lot better then slogging through a slow long run alone.

nice to see you this morning, andy. i agree -- that was a fun run, and much easier to do it with a group (especially with the weather!)

Nice meeting you this morning Andy! A nice group like that just makes the miles fly by.
