Luke - 16.8

16.8mi, 1:54:05 (6:47)
Ran the last 16.8 miles of the Eugene Marathon course with a big group.  There were a few water stations set up by friends, and afterward a big brunch at someone's house.  We started out relaxed but were doing 6:45s or so by a few miles in, and in the last four miles a couple of guys took off and a minute later I picked it up too.  I did a mile at 5:40 and they had put a little distance on me so they were going very fast.  I wasn't able to keep up 5:40s but I was in the low 6's the rest of the way.  Felt pretty great (amazing weather too) for, I believe, my longest run since the marathon.
