16 Miles!!! (Anytime // 8/1/2011)

Okay so this was our longest run to date.

Started out great. Made it 8 miles in good time. Then I had to head over to the Green Mountain Dr. apartment to do our check-out process. I showed up at 9 a.m. and waited until 9:30 a.m. til Mark showed up. Then it took another 15 minutes to do the check out. Then another 10 to make it back to the gym. It was horrible.

My initial 8 miles were just about 10 min miles. My final 8 miles took 15 min/mile. Terrible. Just terrible.

Either way it got done. Which is great. This up coming Sunday (8/14/11) we are doing 18 miles. That is just gross. Not fun. But it's got to be done. So it will be done.

4 Miles (Rec-Plex Loop // 7/27/2011)

I decided to get back onto concrete for this weeks short runs. I laced up my new *Rainbow* New Balance shoes and headed over to the Rec-Plex to see how a fast run would go.

Good  news... I smoked it. Best personal time yet.

4 miles in 37:46

Felt great to not be in gym running.
