20 miles Long in 2:41:10 (8:03/mi, avg HR 152). A wonderful nice and easy long run. Temps in the mid-40s, clouds, and intermittent light rain made for ideal conditions. Originally intended on running 18 miles today, but felt so good thru 18 that I decided to tack on an extra 2 to make myself work for it. Leg muscles started to tire at 16, form started to break down at 18, but overall effort light and easy for the results. I'll take runs like this any day of the week.
1st half in 1:25:55 (8:35.5/mi avg, HR avg 146), 2nd half in 1:15:15 (7:31.5, HR avg 158), so a nice negative split as well.
