18 miles with Carina. We went up Provo Canyon trail 9 miles (into south fork) and back down 9. I have not run quite this far for like, 2 years. Wowza! avg pace was 7:41 for me. We always click well, her and I. We have good chats. I feel bad I probably slowed her a bit. I still don't have the most awesome fitness. But the last 3 miles I told her to go and do a good tempo. And she did. She's so fit! I hovered around 6:55-7 on the way back. I am excited to see how Carina does in St. George and how her progress comes along in the next year. If I can do 18 today, I can do a marathon in September right? :\
