Solo Half-Marathon

I did my longest run ever today all by myself, 13.1(ish) miles from SLU, through Forest Park, past the Wash U campus, and back. It was a really nice run, shady, and I ran on grass for ~9 miles. There were 4 water fountains, spaced about every mile and a half. I ate a compression-short warmed chocolate Gu at the turn around, about an hour into the run, and it was delicious. I ran 1:59:10 total with an extra 1/3 mile or so on the way back, so I ran a couple minutes faster on the way back. I felt really strong the whole time, probably because I was running slowly, but it was good volume for me.
