I ran the bagel run 10 mile yesterday. It's been three weeks since my last one. I really liked doing the same run I've done many times and catching up with a few running friends.
This was also my last long run becuase of two bike rides, Tour du Port and Hilly 100. Returning to a long distance run was welcome. My splits were:
1 9:55, 2 9:35, 3 9:22, 4 9:26, 5 9:59,
6 9:34, 7 10:30, 8 11:07, 9 11:31, 10 11:18

I ran with a friend until mile 6. We worked out some stresses I've been having at my job. His perspective was helpful.
After my friend took a shorter route back to the start, I slowed down, running by myself for the last 4 miles. I was still pleased -- I'm not fast and an overall average of 10:10 is just what I needed after 3 weeks.

I can appreciate your bagel runs. Great way to check in with your friends back east! Those are strong miles and you always seem to do well on these bagel runs! --Well done. -- Bill
