The last long run of the CTC Marathon Training Team was this morning at the UVA Track and Bellair. I headed out with another runner into the dark morning and headed towards the hills of Bellair to start our 7mile run. We started much faster than usual and my heart rate shot up pretty quick. After a bit we settled into a 8:40 pace. We did the hike out to Bellair then headed back to the UVA Campus and hit the Park and then back to the UVA Track. We finished the 7Mile run with a .1 Mile sprint. Overall this run was much faster than I will run for the marathon but it felt good to run faster and a little harder than normal long runs.
We have started the official 7Day countdown to the Richmond Race. I am excited to run this race and spend the weekend with friends and family.
