Ran 23.3 miles this morning in 3hours, 32 minutes, 31 secs. The map shows 2970 calories were burned in the process. This is the 4th long run for the upcoming San Francisco Marathon training.
I really enjoyed the run this morning because I did not take any breaks (except one towards the end and that too for traffic light). I think I’m getting a better grip on pacing my run. This pace requires me to cover the remaining 3 miles (for total 26.2 miles) in 27 mins, 29 secs to meet the sub-4 hour goal. And even the current pace can be easily improved. And my legs are also not that sore as they were during the last long run.
I’ll skip the next weekend for long run and instead focus on extreme hills at Rancho. But otherwise 2 more long runs of similar length and then I’ll be set for the race 
My hat is off to your astute comnmad over this topicbravo!
