Ha! Yeah, I've been doing plenty of long runs. I did 8.6m Saturday and 8.1m yesterday. Longest single run I've done is just over 10m. I find I enjoy them more. They're less about killing yourself as fast as you can go and more about pace/rhythm and endurance, which suits me better.

The best 5K time I've done (again, on a treadmill) is 22:18 and I was running hard. I've done a 10K in 50:40 (although that was last October). For the half marathon, I'm shooting for 2 hours. That's about a 6.5mph pace which for me is a breeze on a treadmill - that's usually under or around 75-77% of my max HR.

As far as shoes, I've got 2 pair I switch between. I'm getting a new pair to break in for running outdoors. I love the New Balance 1080 fresh foam. I haven't had a single issue with comfort.
