I Am a Rock Star

I had the best long run I've ever had!!!!

Why, might you ask? Because not only did I keep a steady pace throughout, but I kept a pace of 12:32. Yes, ladies and gentlemen, I am finally getting faster (or allowing myself to be faster, more like it). If this was a half marathon, I would've PRed by 10 minutes!!!

Stats:
Miles: 14
Average pace: 12.32
Number of miles above 13m/m: 1 - my last, because I was tired and ready to cool down.
Number of miles sub 12m/m: 3!!! I ran my second fastest mile ever at mile 12, and my third at mile 12.

I felt great. I'm a bit sore now, but no more than usual. I felt wonderful and every time I heard my Garmin beep and seeing that I ran a sub 12:30 mile make me happy! I was cheering myself on as I ran (a funny sight, I'm sure).

Total miles this week thus far: 20.
Total miles in the mile competition with Andy: 98.10. I'm ahead of him... for now. He might catch up during the summer (since I hate running in the heat), so I have to get as many miles in now as I can.

Oh, and I did a bit of hill work.

Time for a shower!

Cheers!
