I ran out past Gu Corner and down into the river bottoms to my 5 mile mark and then headed home the same way, I kind of went out to fast and at the end I was feeling it pretty good, I went out past the old barn once I got back to the house and tacked on 3 more miles. My average pace was 8:30 with my total time at 1:50:53 and my HR average was at 146, I average about an 8:20 mile on the way out which is way to fast for me on a long run, I usually start out slow and then gradually increase my pace until the end and finish strong. Oh well, I felt good other than I was tired the last couple miles.

See ya Monday.

Nice long run today Bro. Remember the long run should be ran at 2 min slower per mile than your goal for marathon pace mile. Nice week for you though.
