Chicago Marathon: Week 7, Day 6

I started my long run outside at 6am this morning. After about 5 miles I started to see lightning and it began to rain. Luckily, I only live about 2 blocks from my gym, so I ran the next 5 miles on the treadmill while the storm passed. I finished the last 4 outdoors. I had to switch my Garmin from GPS to foot pod to GPS, so rather than post 3 different screen shots, here are my splits:

1 10:55        8 10:18

2 10:34        9 10:19

3 10:41        10 10:17

4 10:09        11 10:21

5 10:35        12 10:19

6 10:30        13 10:16

7 10:26        14 10:20

14.0 miles in 2:39:33. Average pace 10:27.

I am pretty amazed at the pace I was able to maintain over the course of this run. I was sweating buckets, but I felt good for most of it. I guess the nugget likes distance running as well :)
