18.35 in 2:32:26 (8:18). Started just after 5:30 am. Ran Pioneer Crossing up into A.F. Ran the long road that connects to Highland/Alpine. Turned and ran down by Strausburg Park. Eventually made my way over by Smith's Mktplace and then came back down 300 West. I stopped over at Wines Park hoping there would be water at the fountain (I knew there wasn't going to be) and when I started back up Rob R. from the blog and Ryan had caught up to me. I spent the next 3 or so miles with them and split off right by the jr. high on Main St. I'm sure I slowed them down, but they sped me up and this was by far the best part of my run today. Nice to officially meet Rob. It was a long two miles after that to get home. Felt like I was on a constant climb for the first 7-8 miles of this run. Crossfit. AMRAP in 7 min of burps (I did 64.....I had nothing in me). Did a bunch of other lifting things for a while after that.
