good Long Run at Kokosing Gap 16.01 mi 02:17 08:32 pace

My plan called for 16 progressive with last 30 min. hard & uphill if possible. I think my plan is trying to kill me :) I settled for a steady, quite faster than I've been doing on my long runs, 16 miler with last mile fast. I made my way to Mt. Vernon to run with some of the MVRB's. Met Dave P. , Teri P. & Scott Burgess for the run. I immediately hooked up with Teri & we started while Dave stayed with Scott. We were sooo consistent it's scary! I told them I wanted to stay between 8:30-8:40 pace & I think we nailed it. Splits: 8:40, 8:40, 8:35, 8:33, 8:40, 8:29, 8:43, 8:39, 8:36,8:38, 8:38, 8:37, 8:24, 8:38, 8:25, 8:02. Felt like a long tempo-ish run...don't think I can hold that pace for another 10 miles though, cause I was DONE at the end. Scott stopped at 13 miles & Dave ran the rest with Teri & I, while Scott waited for us. If I understood him correctly, he PR'd his half marathon today which is amazing. Weather was good, but the humidity was still there. We also ended up walking a cool-down mile & ran into quite a few people that Dave & Teri knew. Great meet-up & I hope to run with Teri some more because we found out we think alike! Kindred souls! Good luck to everyone racing this weekend & a quick "shout out" to Peter A. who is running his 100 miler as I write this.

    Great job today! You and Teri were so, so consistent and then you hammered out the final mile. I have no doubt that you can go 10 more miles and be just as strong. The one thing that we talked about that you need to get nailed down is your hydration and fueling plan. Keep up the good work and thanks for coming our way.

    Great job today! You could hold that pace for another 10 because " hopefully" your race won't be as humid.

    Thank you for the awesome run! So glad that you joined us in Mount Vernon today. For the first time in months I feel like I might be able to complete Columbus Marathon, thanks to you and Dave P. I felt great (although tired at the end) through the run and how cool it was that we kept such a consistent pace through the whole run! I hope to run a lot more with you between now and October! THANKS!!
