Twenty at the reservoir.

Perfect weather this morning for a long run. Just about no wind, very cool in the shade, which is most of the trail around the reservoir. I did the progression style long run again today, with each five faster than the last. First 5 @ 38:12, then through 10 @ 1:14:07 (36:55) cruised through 15 in 1:49:56 (35:49.) Finished up total in 2:24:04 (34:08.) I felt really great throughout this run so it seem I didn't lose too much endurance over the last few weeks, but during the last mile I did feel a twinge in my right ITB, so I'll have to go see Dr. C this week. I took an ice bath when I got home and have just been eating a lot and watching the Giants. Overall pace for 20 miles was about 7:12 per mile. This run was a good confidence builder, I needed to feel like that week I took off didn't totally screw up my training. I still am going to revise my marathon goal, but probably not by as much as I first thought. Plus, next weekend's half will give me a good idea of where I am.
Total for the week: 54
for the year: 1504
