Awesome morning for a long run, cool temperatures, and an almost full moon lighting the way. I was a bit nervous for this mornings run, first "long" run since TOU. I'm sure in a few weeks I'll be looking back on the "good ol' days" of 17 mile Saturday runs. I left the hotel at 5:00am ran 3 miles up to the bunny trail out the trail 5.5 miles turned around at the 8.5 mile mark and ran the same route back to the hotel. I was feeling great the whole way, kept looking down and my watch thinking I was going way to fast for a long run but I never really felt tired until the last mile. Got back, showered and off to work, still beat all my co-workers to work by 1 hour. Just looked at my Garmin profile and can see why it was so fast the second 1/2, looks like it's slightly uphill all the way out and downhill all the way back. It seems completely flat when your running it in the dark. http://connect.garmin.com/player/64555149
