75-minute capillary run today, the longest of the summer so far. I started out with Reed but he eventually got ahead of me. I went a little longer than 37:30 out so I could hit 5.5 miles, and I was worried I went out too fast, but I decided I had it in me to speed up on the last 3 miles and my run lasted 75:13, so just a tad over. I ran at an average pace of 6:49 per mile and hit 11.04 miles.

Today was the last day of my ham challenge. I went to every day of practice but one for 24 days, because we had no practice on that day and I did the freedom run. I'm proud of that, and also that I've been pushing the pace. Can't wait to keep pushing for the rest of the summer and into the season!

PM- Did a recovery run because you have to when you do a hard run like I did in the morning. 4.01 miles.
