Solid long run. 22.4 miles at 7:15 AP. 18.4 outside at 7:19 AP (my place to JRP entrance on NSL Center Street, down to North Temple, left to the Rancho Market, and then back the same way), then 4 miles on a treadmill at 6:54 AP (mostly low 7, then 5:56 flat for the last .5) so Daria could run on the one next to me (she did 3.2 in the time that I did 4). Why did I turn around at Rancho Market you ask? Well, I wanted to take a bathroom break, but had to attempt 3 bathrooms to find one that was functional. First, I stopped at the 711, but they were out of TP, then I stopped at the McDonald's and their toilet was clogged, so finally, I stopped at Rancho Market. Ahh, Rose Park, my favorite area of town. :) In any case, I felt really solid, so that was good. I didn't consume any food or drink except for a swig of Orange Fanta while grabbing Daria from the apartment before heading to the treadmills.
Also, this was apparently my single longest training run since January (not counting the 2 road marathons and 1 trail marathons I've raced since January)! It really is time to build a new base!
