Last real long run before Boston. Started out pretty slow. For some reason, I was incredibly hungry. Not sure why but I had a craving for a cheeseburger during these first few miles. Stopped at a convenience store and bought some Gatorade and a Nutrigrain bar. This seemed to hit the spot. Held the same slow pace for the first 12 miles without much desire to push harder. Ran mile 13 faster because I had to get to the nearest grocery store quickly for an emergency pit stop. Felt much better and picked up the pace a little. Ran the last 2 miles at 7:00/mile pace. Right tibia was sore at the start again and my left achilles ached a little. The reduction in miles in the next few weeks should allow these nagging injuries to heal.
Total Time: 2:37:02 (7:49/mile)
