Weather - 63 degrees, sunny. A really great day for running, and I ended up going 3 hours around the South Farms, MBK, the Arboretum, Crystal Lake, and Busey Woods. I went easy for most miles, so I am calculating an average of 9:15 pace. I felt best at 90 minutes, and ran between 8:00-8:30 pace for 20 minutes after that. At the 1:50 mark I stopped at Strawberry Fields and bought a sandwich, fruit, and a drink. I sat under a nearby tree and ate, then started running again and stopped at the 3 hour mark. I feel I could have gone another hour, but I felt it best not to push my body too hard right now, 3 hours is long enough. #349
