long run of 13 miles today. The weather was very nice, mid 50s and light winds. Took a while to get into a groove, and had some minor GI issues throughout, but I pushed through for a nice run with some good splits:

1- 7:20.2

2- 7:10.2

3- 7:06.3

4- 7:19.2

5- 7:18.5

6- 6:59.4

7- 6:53.8

8- 7:18.8

9- 7:18.0

10- 6:56.6

11- 6:57.3

12- 6:59.5

13- 7:08.8

TOTAL-- 1:32:46, 7:08 avg

Overall, turned out to be a very good run. 7:08 avg is pretty decent, got in a few grooves at a few different times as is evidenced by my sub-7s (GMP) miles coming in groups.

late night speed work today. Was busy all afternoon so decided to run late. Ended up getting out there about 10:30. ran 4 mile tempo, was gonna shoot for 6, but running late at night made for some major GI issues since it was after supper. pretty decent weather for a night run in november--mid 30s light winds, felt good. First mile of the warmup was actually 6:54, so GMP. splits on the tempo:

1- 6:02.2

2- 6:08.1

3- 6:03.5

4- 5:57.5

TOTAL-- 24:11, 6:03 avg pace, pretty good for a night run after eating poorly all day, definitely felt that though

Fartlek today. Did 2 sets of 5,4,3,2,1 min on's with 1 min off between each rep and 2 min set break.Then added another 5 & 3 min on at the end. OVerall, estimated that I was maintaining GHMP for the on's so that is 38 min at GHMP and the rest at easy pace which estimates to 6.3 miles or so of tempo mileage. This was a key workout if I'm to attempt a half in 2 weeks.
