Blake has been nursing an ankle injury and made it official this week that he is pulling out of Avalon 50.  That left me to do my last long run solo this morning, but it was a perfect day for a long run; overcast, low 50s, and no wind.  I started off well trying to keep a nice easy pace, but around mile 22 I hit a dark spot for a few miles.  I finally worked through it and did my last 4 miles with an average pace of 7:32.

Total run: 30 miles, 4hours 18 minutes, 1900 ft elevation gain and loss.
