First week of training was finished yesterday with a 13-mile run. Had no trouble with 13 miles; started slow and splits were mostly negative. Last five miles were all under 8:00, and mile 13 was the fastest at 7:42, so I had plenty of energy, even without a Gu packet. Just had a peanut butter & jelly sandwich before the start. Was about 28 degrees when I started out, which is about 5 degrees warmer than it's been most mornings for the past week.

Did a five-mile slow jog around Center City with Paul on Saturday.
