Looooong run today. I drove down to outlet parking lot, and ran 10 miles up the canyon and up the road past vivan park, then turned around and did a nice tempo run back. The goal was to keep the pace under 6.10, and I averaged 6.07, so that was good. I was happy with how I was able to stay mentally focused and finish strong after a big hill with about 2.5 miles to go. I'll be on the edge of getting that sub 2.40 time, I'll just have to be really mentally disciplined, run a nice negative split, and know when to slow down and when to push it. I'm excited for the challenge.
