Decent effort at a 14-mile progression run.  Ran it on the Pinellas Trail from Wall Springs County Park - who knew?  Did it in sections - out-and-back to the truck for fuel at six miles and then fuel, shoes, socks and shirt change at ten miles.  Ridiculously warm and humid, so wasn't too irritated that the progression didnt progress all the way down to goal half marathon pace (7:15ish).  Went pretty well going from 8:20 down to 8 flat pace for first six mile stretch, and then from 8 flat to 7:45 pace for next four mile stretch.  Longish break at ten (5-6 min) resulted in low motivation during mile 11, but got back on it to go 7:33 and 7:21 for 12th and 13th, then jogged on in the last 0.6 back to the park.  Walked around the impressive little park for a while before heading back to the folks house to pack up and head home to Tally.

Easy trail run back in Tallahassee. Running evenings this week for various reasons unrelated to running - bleh.

Had to run after work again, but this eve it was following a nice heavy shower.  Still humid, but low 70's and a breeze - pretty nice.  A bit of up and down, but the last 2 flat miles actually were the fastest right at marathon pace.  Good run.

One last evening run today and it was back to unbearable heat and humidity - oh well.  Did five easy in the neighborhood.
