I ran 12 miles for my long run today. I felt a bit tired at the beginning, but gradually increased pace till the end. I did my last 3 miles around marathon pace (6:50). I averaged 7:43 for the entire run. I'm hoping to get back into the grove next week with some quality runs before I head off to Belize for 10 days.

Nice 12 miler with 3 at mp. I'm thinking the same thing. Next week I need to get back into the groove. However I have enjoy "goofing" around this past week. Come to think of it I have been goofing around for the past 5 months. I gotta get serious about training for Boston. So, I'll be following your blog closely to gain insights and wisdom.

Have fun in Belize!!! You taking a nice tropical family vacation?

Belize??? I am so jealous!!

How badly I wish that my nice and easy 12 milers average a 7:43 pace. You are unbelievably fast.

Anyway ... have a great time in the land of the Mayans!! (So jealous.)

And ... nice job on your run.

Nice job on that run man. Good to see you back up to your marathon pace. Looks like your recovery is working just right.
