I have noticed lately that my long runs are making me nervous. I ran a 12 mile (and wasn't too hard). Next week I tried 14, but couldn't finish it and since then I my Saturday long runs are more of a pain than fun. So, this week I decided to just take it easy. I am just going to go out and enjoy the long run. Hopefully I will manage my speed well and if I need to stop, I will stop and take a break. Let's see how this works.
And I moved the long run to Sunday morning, because I tend to sleep late Friday's.
Here is a good article from Running Times. Basically, it says you first need to build a running base and then move on to getting faster.
