Comments:
Did the same long run out and back on the tow path as last week. It was excrutiatingly long and boring but I got it done. The first 2.5 was in 15:12 (6:04 pace). Then the next 5.8 miles was hit in 33:31 (5:46 pace). So the average pace on the way out was 5:52 per mile. The same 5.8 on the way back was in 32:36 (5:37 pace). And the last 2.5 was in 14:02 (5:36 pace) despite feeling like I slowed down a lot. I definitely went out harder this week than last. I was pretty spent on the way back and didn't negative split as much. This was a great run. I didn't use orthotics and the shins felt good.
