I ran out towards GU corner and then down into the river bottoms I then did a 2 mile loop down there and then headed back to GU corner, after that I fueled up on some of my borthers water and gatorade.  Pat loss came up and I was able to run mile or so with him and then I headed back to GU corner, fueled up again and then headed for home. After returning home I was feeling pretty good so I tacked on another 2 miles around my house to give me just over 16 miles for the day. Average pace was 8:31 with total time at 2:18:15, I felt pretty good at times and then other time I would stop and stretch for a second and then be on my way.  It was way Hot and very humid but I was averaging a faster pace towards the end than at the beginning, I wanted to teach the legs to run even when their tired... I'm glad that I was able to get this one in the bank, I was only planning on going 14 but went a little more so I feel pretty good about it.

PS- I owe my brother some Gatorade and water it came in handy big time, thanks Brother!

See ya Monday.
