Long Progression Run. 8.1 miles in ~70 mins. 8:38 AP.
Started at an easy 10 min mile (with drills), then 9:30, 9:00, 8:30, 8:00 (my watch died here), 7:30, 8:45, 9:30.
Longest run in the past few months. My legs and lungs felt strong the last 2 miles, which is promising even though I backed off. This was also my highest weekly mileage (26 mi) in the past few months, too. I'm really trying to avoid injury.
