Today's long run was relatively a short one (7 miles). I am little puzzled on why the distance goes down during the marathon training but I guess this is part of the scientific process to get the body acclimatized.
I reached the White rock lake 5 min late. My pace group had already left. Since I wanted to catch up with them, I started to sprint for the first half mile at 7.5 min/mile. This was a blessing in disguise as I finally was able to reach my goal of finishing the long run below the 10min/mile which was a long standing psychological barrier :) I am going to switch my pace group from next week to 10min and below for the marathon.
Woo…Hoo..this is one small step towards reaching my goal for the marathon J
