Last year's Long Runs--(added update)

As I brace myself for this morning's 16 mile run, I thought I'd look back at last year..... keep in mind that we did not hit this distance until April 15, so we are quite a bit ahead of schedule. We have plenty of time to increase our pace by May 20. This year I did a 14 miler with a lot of snow and ice on the ground in a 11:00 pace and a 13 miler also with a 11:00 pace. Much better than last year already.

Update
This morning we did our 16 miler with an average pace of 11:00 per mile! That's a big improvement from last year's 16 miler, which was 11:43/mile, a month further into the training season. We rocked it.
