Getting back to long runs

RUN: 12.6 miles in 2hrs. 1st and last 30 mins were at an easier pace, the middle 60 mins was 6.6 miles in ~55 mins for a 8:20-8:30 m/m pace.
STRENGTH: 20 mins total, 3 rounds of 3 min walking lunges, 2 min crunches, 1 min burpees.

Started early and the weather was much cooler (85F). LC and I started early and did ~28 mins before the group. She had some great stories to share :)

Then we met with the group, and DC and I took off at a faster pace. We did the loop together with him pushing me a bit. I kept asking for a slow-down (although I really didn't want to slow down) and wasn't granted one. This is good for me, but I was worried about being able to hang on to the pace and being able to continue running afterwards. But I did. So no worries.

Xfit sounded harder than it was. It was awesome.
