14 miles, about 12 with James. Met up with him after .3 miles at 5th East / South Temple, ran to his house for him to drop off his backpack, and then ran to the end of 5th East at 4500 South, right around 7 miles when we got there. Splits on the way out were pretty easy, ranging from 6:52 to 7:04. On the way back, we did 6:26 (slightly downhill, about marathon effort), 6:21 (slightly downhill, marathon effort), 6:18 (uphill, only a little faster, but that uphill was noticeable, felt like it was getting to be about tempo), 6:01 (first half down, 2nd half up, full on tempo), 5:55 (uphill, hard), then another .2 at 5:5x pace before jogging the last block to James's house, and then I jogged home very easy (8:20 pace, quite uphill, 5 or 6% over th last mile). Good run overall, I felt strong on the marathon pace, although that 5:55 mile was not feeling great. Hip was totally fine.
