12 miles in 2:01:48

RUN ANALYSIS:
12 miles in 2:01:47 at 10:09 min/mile and 5.91 mph; out and back splits -- out in 59:47 (9:58 pace, 6.02 mph) and back in 1:02:00 (10:20 pace, 5.81 mph).
Weight before: 223; Weight after: 218.5

The original plan was to do 10 miles nice and easy, but my running partner this week (LC) is on a different plan, and he was due for 12 miles. Not wanting him to have all the fun by himself, I decided to run the 12. We were running together until about mile #4, then LC started to pull away while I stopped for hydration. I never caught up. He finished in 2:00:20 or something like that. Except for the longer return, this was not a bad run at all. I feel sore now, and I am sure I will even be worse tomorrow. The plan is for 7 miles on Wednesday in 1:07 or better, 3 easy on New Year', on 5 on Friday, and Sunday will be 8.
