Notes
First long run in the Alphafly, which I don't love and spent much of the run trying to figure out. But late in the run and afterwards it showed itself to be superior probably to all other shoes just for its protectiveness. Was just under 7 minute pace for 7 miles, then had to back off for a couple miles, then ran 4 more just over 7 minute pace. Also stopped several times for water and a bathroom break. At least I ran 20 fastish miles, though.
