lindseykuper and I just did our first weekend long run for marathon training Fall 2k9!
We went 16 miles; two of these. Why do the same route twice, you might ask? Comfortable pacing for everybody while still letting us run together. Once with just me, once with the two of us, and then once with just Lindsey. It worked out pretty well!
I thought I was going unsustainably fast on the first lap, but I worked out the pacing, and it turns out I was going just a hair faster than my target race pace. Hrm. There's a lot of working out to be done between now and race day.
Also: it's a school night [0]! I should get rested up for some computational linguistics!
[0] My first school night in over two years!
