Long Sunday afternoon run - cool temp's, in the 60's, carried 16 ounces of water in one hand, fuel belt with iced bottles, 24 ounces of water, 6 ounces of gatorade. Used up all liquids in 2.5 hours of running, shot blok every 30 minutes, one GU at the one hour point, and a handfull of sport beans at the two hour point - everything went really, really well. I was feeling hungry by the end, but no bonk....
First time I've been able to bring my pace under 10 minute miles on this long of a run.
Longer run, trying to hold a little faster pace - looking for a 9'45 second pace for my next marathon. Pace was good, now I just need to be able to hold that for an additional 18 plus miles...
Fartlek this morning, 10 min warm up at 10k pace, the 8/6/4/2 at increasing pace, last two minutes at pretty much a full-on sprint. Times were all real rough estimates, as it was really, really dark out this morning (no moon), and I didn't want to fuss with my watch trying to do splits.
