This week is my highest mileage week that I’ve run since 2005 when I ran 60 miles a couple different weeks. I felt strong all week with no aches, no morning stiffness, no muscle soreness, and good energy level all week.

Great job on that long run. That's awesome you were feeling so great and managed a negative split!! I didn't think I'd be able to get my long run in at anything other than a set pace, especially after my first few miles were so slow, but I pulled it off, just not nearly as great as you did!!
