Long MP run in cold, rain and wind

13 mi at 7:30 (marathon pace) in cold driving rain. About 10C with 15-30km/hr NE wind. Ran hard right from start to keep warm and get the run in. Felt great after a few miles, not easy but not pushing it either. Excellent confidence builder for the main event where the weather could be like this or worse. Now to taper the running and eating... but not today ;-)
