Ann and I visited the AK Club for a "Long Run". This ended up being an hour on the treadmill at a comfortable pace. I ended up running seven (7) miles in 1:03--pretty happy with my effort (heart rate monitor indicated an average of 155bpm).
We are still more then six months away and I'm feeling more and more comfortable at the 9:05min/mile pace. If I can maintain my base and chip away with some interval training as I get closer, my "long-shot dream goal" of 1:50 may actually be realistic instead of foolishly optimistic--a pace of 8:24min/mile for the 13.1 miles.
