16 Mile Record Run

16 mile run up at the lake, running to the south end, then out on the spur to the parking lot, then back to the restaurant, around into the woods up to the sailboat cove, then back. Was cool out and my legs felt pretty good, and I mostly ran negative splits. 10:33 for the warm up mile, then 9:56, 9:56, 9:53, 9:59, 9:54, 9:51, 9:45, 9:43, 9:41, 9:38, 9:36, 9:37, 9:32, 9:35 and a final mile of 8:44. Pushed it a bit the final mile, heart rate got up to 168, other than the final mile max heart rate was 162, so wasn't pushing it too hard. Overall AHR was 152. Total time of 2:36:03, average pace of 9:45. Was in the 40s when we started at 8:14, was in the 50s when we got done, but was sunny and nearly zero wind. Record pace for a 16+ Mile Run.
