16 mile recovery run after that. Nice! :)
I was happy enough with my first 20 miler of the VMLM schedule yesterday. Recent weekly long run progression has been 15, 17, 17, 18, 20, so not too much of a shock, especially since the last marathon was only three months ago. 79 miles for the week. This week I'm kind of entering into "marathon specific" phase, with my first continuous tempo run in place of the regular threshold intervals. That'll either be joining a nifty tempo training group in Battersea Park on Thursday evening, or a Saturday morning session with the club, depending on what the weather's doing on Thursday evening and whether I can be bothered cycling 8 miles to Battersea in a howling gale.

Don't spotify do a playlist that adapts/responds to your running rythm or something? Never used it but could be worth it for those who like music when they run.
I did my last big training run on Friday, 28 and a bit miles along the Thames from Goring to Henley, and then back to Reading in 5h17m. An average 40s per mile faster than the previous weeks 30 miler but the ground had dried out a bit, and less time stood still. Followed it up wth 16 miles on Saturday which felt like plenty. Legs feel shot today.
