Notes Based on Jack Daniels' Marathon Training Plan A and my mileage this week, this run should have been ~8.5 miles. Throughout the week, I had envisioned a 10-miler but once feeling it at the outset today. But after I got into it a couple miles, I decided "... since I'm out here, I might as well get 10 ...."

Cool morning. Took it easy. Felt fine.
