Did a long run of 16 outside today. Started out running about 7:20-7:30 pace then I picked it up for the last 8 miles. Splits for the final 8 miles were 7:09, 7:15, 7:21, 7:09, 6:52, 6:57, 7:09 and 6:52. (last 2 miles were very uphill) Anyway- average pace for the whole run was 7:18, average for the last 8 miles was 7:04. I feel like I am finally getting stronger at long runs-I dislike them the most-but I feel like I am getting better at them.
