Met up with a solid group of guys today at rainbow gardens to meet up for a long run up in the back part of the valley. We had, Dave, Jason, Ken, Bryant, Riley, Jon. Albert was our saving grace though, he has been injured but was still nice enough to drive up with us and take the car back down so we didnt have to drive back up. Saved us pretty close to an hour. Started the run pretty consvervative for the first 2 miles then sort of eased myself into marathon paced tempo for 14 miles. Way happy with the result, really majority of the miles felt like conversational pace, which is a solid sign for my fitness level right now and hope just to get more fit in the upcoming weeks.

splits were, 559; 543; 545; 538; 539; 538; 546; 542; 545; 547; 546; 543; 543; 536.

With this run I feel like 2:30 is reachable for the marathon again, and would love to obtain that goal too with how much has gone this year for me. Great run.
