Very happy with today's run.  Met Ryan at Maverik, first time we've ran together in 7 weeks.  I really needed that, we seem to be able to push each other at exactly the right times, and seem to be at the same level all the time.  He then turns around and kicks my butt at every race though, so that must mean he's just taking it easy on me on our training runs.

I was thinking we'd be doing well just to average 7:30 pace for the 18 miles today, so was really happy with how well I held up for my first long run in months. Hip felt good, legs are a bit sore but that's to be expected after an 18 miler.  We started out slower and progressively sped up over the entire run.  Probably averaged under 7:00 pace for the last 6.

18 miles in 2:09:21  7:11 avg pace.

68 miles for the week, first time I've been on the first mileage board page in a long long time.
