15 miles is a long time on a treadmill!  But I did it!  I was a little worried after yesterdays run (or lack there of), but I felt pretty good.  I still have to get the whole "what do I eat before I run 15 miles?" thing down.  Did some sport beans.  Seemed to work ok.  I think I'll try a couple different energy gels and what not to see what works for me.  Thank you Jeff for the running advice on my form.  Something to always work on for me.  Long runs are a good time to try and correct things that are wrong (which is a lot for me!). All in all I feel great for having run that far.  Plus- I realized that I did it in 2:23 and that is only 3 minutes slower than my first half marathon!  I just might become a real runner yet!  6.3 until mile 12.5 then 6.4 for 2 miles then 6.5 for the last .5.

Great job on the long run this morning. You looked very relaxed running and good job with the pace

It's so good to see you on the blog! We need more girls here in idf. Nice miles. I haven't done that long of run in a long time. Guess I better step it up. Talk to you later.
