16 Miles. Farthest I have run since last year. Was not sure how far I would go... made it through six with Alyce M. and Leanne O. ... thought I'd run to 7 and do 14... but got to 7, figured I should go to 8... got to eight... figured I should go back! My fueling was off a bit in the second half hour of the run, since I was gabbing. Corrected that and felt good. Knees and feet were not thrilled with the concrete... Sweetwater, my ass! Concrete Jungle is a better name for that place!

Cranked up the speed a bit for 3-4 miles and was glad when I hit a short stretch of dirt. Then caught up Alyce and Leanne with 2 miles left. I was toast. Good to run with them for most of the rest (although Alyce saying attack one of the hills was not good - started cranking up the hills!). Saw a baby and parent coyote close to the end. Ran in the new Saucony 4mm Mirages. Second run in them. Liked them, but need a bit of a stride adjustment. Cadence was up, but needs to be higher with the 4mms on concrete. Iced feet, threw on compression. Drank 80 oz of water! Probably could have drank a bit more, but not much. Also took electros in a separate bottle, which worked well again. Should have started at 5 or 530 - damn hot by the time I was done. Also ran into Norman M. (we waited for him), Al H., David P., Matt... and Tinka for a minute. 840' up and down.
