The plan was to do 13 miles at Marathon Pace + 30 seconds (9:00/mile).  I figured I would go for 8:50/mile pace.  Got the 13 miles done @ 8:49/mile. 

Split 1-3 at 8:59, 8:41, 8:44 (warming up but at about 8:50/mile).

Split 4-7 at 8:26, 8:34, 8:38, 8:34 (Marathon Pace splits)

Split 8-9 (begin walk breaks and some pick ups to slow pace) 8:48, 8:49,

Split 10-13 at 9:23, 8:50, 9:18 and 8:58. 

Walk breaks during mile 10-13 but was a bit difficult holding the 8:50 pace with the walk breaks.   

Figure I’ll keep easy pace at 8:50/mile instead of 9:00/mile.  But from a distance perspective, I am falling off pace at mile 10. 

My paces are off. 

Next Long run: Whatever the prescribed pace is: attempt to hold that pace no matter how slow it may seem.  Consider Marathon Pace to be 8:20/mile. 

The goal here would be to run consistent splits without the tail end of the run being too taxing.
