Ran with a group today for the first part of my long run with Trent from RunningAhead and a co-worker. Co-worker has a natural 3:30 marathon pace, with a BQ under his belt. Trent led the way, and we managed to keep exactly on my “target” LR/ER pace of 9’18″.

Then we proceeded to stand around for 18 minutes of blabbing/recovery… then I finished my “18 miler” by getting lost on the way back from downtown:
