This morning's long slow distance run was brought to you by lots of pizza and wine from last night. The scenery was beautiful and really made the run enjoyable. We started at the Monterey Beach and ran the path east to Seaside. We took the low fork on the way out and then the Dunes fork on the way back. I did not have any pain in my legs or feet and I am really happy about that. I think the new pair of shoes is making a difference.
We ran 8 miles in 1:26:28 for an average pace of 10:49. We ran faster the last half mile just to have a strong finish. Splits: 10:57, 11:03, 11:11, 10:53, 10:56, 10:52, 10:38, 9:57.
After the run we went to The Wild Plum Cafe and Bakery for brunch. The coffee was not good, the food was OK, and the service was meh, so I don't think this will be our regular brunch place either. Bummer.
