Today I walked/jogged for 4.9 miles. Now it looks like they are going to do construction on both ends of my street. WTH? How are we supposed to drive out of here? Luckily, I could run through the construction cones as they haven't started work on the other end of the street, just blocked it off with cones.

I think you are right in saying it's easier to keep going for a longer run than having interval runs. Today, I ran a long distance of 1.5 miles straight So hopefully, I will be able to handle the 12 min. long run on my next day of my running program.
