11 am Long Run.  Out and baclk on People Trail out to Fire Station/airport.  Much better weather, and consequently, much more encouraging resulting run/performance.  Stopped a couple times for Number 1's, refill on water, and 1 No. 2.  Ate 3 gels and roughly 2 full handhelds of water.  29 miles - 3:55:52.  Stayed around the 8 minute range most of the way and was pretty comfortable.  Last long run before the 100M.  Maybe a 18-20mi. next week. and then maybe bandit half marathon in Indy if feeling fresh.
