For a minute I thought you meant you ran 2 miles in 10:23. I was like damn nice job 
I'm at 25 miles for the week. Yesterday I did 10 x 3:00 at threshold, roughly 6:50-7:00 pace, with 60 seconds rest. I'm hoping to hit 10 miles tomorrow and really get back into the swing of things. All my runs have been on the treadmill because I have no idea how the heat will drop my blood sugar. Once we get some cooler weather I plan on going back outside

Been a shitty week for a variety of reasons.
Did 12 miles this AM at Black Creek. I love this track because it’s gravel and flat. It’s very easy to manage your pace here. 2 miles at HR 130. 7 miles at HR 140. 3 miles at HR 150. Covering the whole zone 2 range. Felt great.

Yesterday's run.
Got hard mile 16-18 and my HR went up. Was sticking around 145-151 for most of the run. Last 2 were closer to 155-165.

Heart Rate drift is a real thing, it's mostly caused by dehydration, but it can also be caused by a few other things. If I start any run over 13 miles and my HR isn't staying below 150 for like the first 10 miles I know it's gonna be a slog.

I was trying so hard to avoid it.
I could have fueled better, ate around 150g carbs, 2 electrolyte tabs with water, and just regular water. My 2nd refuel around 1.5 hours in I knew I could have used more fluids.
Funny enough I started the run a little freaked out, mile 1 at 10:10 my HR was 135ish which is high. I ran 10 the day prior so I attribute it to that. Mile 4 I was hovering around 145 and I thought about cutting it at 12, but after that it stayed 145-150 for around 10 more miles which I thought was weird.

Soooooo excited!! My first week of my training plan will officially kick off with some 800s today!

New training plan starts today? Thought you just ran marathon Sunday? How did it go?

Sunday went great! I made the decision last week to only sign up for the Half because I had 3 friends running the Full who were all trying to Qualify for Boston (the time I was going to go for wouldn't have done anything for me).
I paced one of them for half of her race (1:38 Half) and went back out and ran another 7 miles finding all 3 of them at different points and giving them nutrition / electrolytes and running alongside them at different points to cheer them on and push them to keep going.
So in all I ended up doing just over 20 miles on Saturday with 13.1 at a 7:29 pace, and still went out and did another 7 miles, it felt great and I feel good.
P.S: The girl I paced for the first half got a BQ with a 9 minute buffer!!! My other friend got a 6 minute buffer, and then my last friend didn't BQ (even though he ran the Marathon in a Blazing 3:02:28... the male divisions are ridiculous)
Needless to say, because all I did was 20 on Sunday, I plan to do a normal 45 - 50 mile week this week

Ran 3.5 at a 9 flat pace. Felt pretty damn good. I'm sad the cooler air is leaving.

Is that the Gardendale group? I haven’t heard much about it since it was originally mentioned.

Yes, they are still going strong. Was a smaller group this week, but still had 15 or so.

Walked the parking garage steps climbing over 2200 steps and accumulated 2 miles per my watch in memory of 9-11.

Way more than what we typically get unless we combine groups with the Lifetime Group.

Put in a few miles with kid in the jogging stroller this morning. I forgot how much work it was to push that thing uphill.
