training update - 16 miles

I ran 16 miles yesterday. It was a "15 mile" training day, but the loop was 5.2 miles. Well, more like 5.3 according to GPS. So I ran an extra 0.1. 2 hours 34 minutes. Considering the potty break that's not bad. I think that's a 9 minute 37 second pace. That was a good training pace as I wasn't overly tired at the end. I mean, my legs were very angry but I wasn't walking at the end of the training run. I was able to run up "Glaxo hill," albeit slowly, a 3rd time (training was done in Research Triangle Park, and there is a grade going up to the entrance of GSK).

16 miles again next week.
