Training Sun, Jan 18 – Season’s First Long Run
I ran my first scheduled long run of the 2009 training season. It was a ten mile run past Mercer Airport over Jacob’s Creek bridge, into Hopewell Township, and back home.

There are a few nice hills along Bear Tavern Road, which took a bite out of my pace after mile five.
