Weather: cold.

A quick 5 miles at 9:40/mile.  And again, failed to put together the miles at ten minute mile pace.  In mind I was going at what felt like 10:00/mile.  No big deal.  As I look at the training program for the ultra, it really is no different than what a marathon training program should be.  If anything, the Longs are longer than those in a marathon program…but not by much. 

The elevation outlined here is off.  There probably is 250 feet of total elevation gain for this well known Rocky Hill route.  And the splits were probably consistent but due to the elevation, the consistency is not reflected in the avg pace below.  

Getting back into running.  And although am running easy, legs are feeling the miles as I put off running for an entire 16 days!  I really don't think I ever took that long a break before.
