As far as I understand your easy run pace should equal your long run pace. However I really enjoy running even slower occasionally. I find it very restorative and relaxing. How many others do the same on a regular basis?

+1. I (actually Pfitzinger) call it "recovery" pace. For me, its anywhere from 10 secs/mile to 60 secs/mile slower than easy/LR pace, depending on the day.

I'll second MikeyMike's sentiment. My easy runs are just that amazingly easy more like homerun trot pace

I like that terminology - "Homerun Trot Pace". I may use HTP in my log...
