Long run. 7:17 am, 27-38° F, 85% humidity, wind 2 various directions. I've decided that 10 miles qualifies as a long run. Michelle and I ran together as we have done for the last several Saturdays, but for the first time in a long time, we went to the Highline Canal Trail today. We decided that the softer surface and fewer hills would be better. The trail was pretty empty when we first started. I think we only saw one other runner (and a coyote) in the first 3 miles. But then shortly after that the masses came out and there were a lot of runners on the trail. I guess they all got a slightly later start than we did. We keep adding just a little distance each Saturday, but so far so good.We pushed the pace the last 0.1 and I kept up with Michelle this time and didn't quite throw up. The last time I ran 10 miles or more was last July 31, when I ran 12.09 miles, so in a few more weeks here I will exceed that, and then I'll have to go back to the marathon I ran last June to get a longer distance than what I'll be running on Saturdays then.
AP: 10:03. Splits: 10:08, 9:59, 9:50, 9:51, 9:56, 10:10, 10:15, 10:11, 10:15, 9:50.
