Long run -18 miles @ 7:50 aerobic pace

Start of Base Build week 4.

Pretty humid today in Hyde park...but one of the advantages are there are kiosks everywhere that sell water and juices. Had to stop twice to buy water, just to stay somewhat hydrated.

Happy to have this one behind me.

Long run Sunday: 19.32 miles in Hyde and Green Parks (early enough this Sunday to avoid having to play "Dodge-a-tourist")

Perfect weather today for my run...16C and Mild.

Negative split run, beginning felt "so-so", the back end felt really good. Longest effort this year.
