AM - 20 mile LR. wanted to do 30 but i started at 8AM and by 18 miles it was mid-80's and not being too conservative on pace meant my goose was near cooked, so stopped at 20

splits:

7:18, 7:10, 7:03, 7:09 7:03

7:01, 7:07, 7:10, 7:07, 7:06

7:08, 6:55, 6:45, 6:55, 6:49

6:48, 6:38, 6:38, 6:32, 6:12

avg pace 6:56. haven't done 20 in a few months, but from november-february when i was doing one or two a week i think i was running 7:10-7:15 range at peak fitness. more effort spent today than on those, but it's the first time i've gone over 15 since february, and 20's a whole different animal. it'll get easier. didn't really make an effort to run fast until the last mile, everything else just was the pace my legs carried me to. we only go up from here.

PM - 10 very easy shaking out the long run. think i unintentionally dipped into the reserves yesterday so i was still fairly beat, plus i was coming off a shift. felt miserable mentally those first few miles, legs weren't the only thing that felt better by the finish so i'm glad i stuck it out. i'd say there's a better chance of me breaking 4 in the mile tomorrow than being ready for the workout i intended to do so i guess i'll just play it by ear the next day or two.

PM - 5 in the evening. stomach thing persisted longer than i hoped, but i felt much better than i thought i would on the run. pace wasn't anything crazy, just felt good. by the end i wanted to try and go for 12 but with a long run tomorrow and not having ran in a couple days, i just wanted to do enough to loosen up without tiring myself. if i feel this good next saturday night i'll go for 12
