Wow! We are continually setting new PR’s and it is kind of scary at how fast we are getting on our runs, especially our long runs! Today’s run was 16 miles, and after our 8 mile run on Tuesday, I had a good feeling that we could finish this week’s 16 miles in 3 hours. Well, we did it! 3 hours and 52 seconds to be exact!
This morning’s run felt pretty good. I felt really good at the end of the run and wanted to run more, but knew I needed to stop! :) The temperature was around 72 degrees at about 8:00 am when we started our run. Once again, forgot to check the humidity, but didn’t feel too bad. The sun was out full force by the middle to end of the run and made the last 4 to 5 miles a little hot, but we were able to push through it. We ended the 16 mile run with a nice long cool down. We walked 2.41 miles for our cool down to end up with a daily total of 18.41 miles.
We finished today’s 16 mile run in 3:00:52, which is an 11:18 minute per mile pace. Amazing! Just as a comparison…we finished last week’s 16 miles at an 11:59 minute per mile pace and finished in 3:12, so we cut a lot of time off of this week’s run.
Great run and a great way to end the week!
