I moved my long day up to accomodate an incoming weather front that's coming in tonight.  The run felt great.  I was tempted to go longer but don't want to deviate too much from my training schedule. Instead I pushed the pace the last 3 miles and ran them in 7:15's with very little trouble.  Gives me hope that I'm improving.  We'll see how I feel tommorrow.
