9 MiLeS!

So I ran 9 miles on Monday, August 5th! What a great run and I had a great time as well. I had an average pace of 10:45/mile and finished the 9.1 miles in 1:37:47 seconds. I felt great through the majority of the run and feel so accomplished! I have only been running for about 2 months now and just can't believe that I can already run 9 miles! My next long run will be an attempt at running 10 miles! If I keep up with this I should be able to run a 1/2 marathon in 4 short weeks from now! How awesome is that??

Not only did I run 9.1 miles that morning but when I got home I completed a 20 minute workout with Jillian - 30 day shred at level 2. I think that was harder than my run! LOL

I am also doing a 30 day Squat Challenge. Just did my 75 squats for today! I'll get into great shape one way or another with everything that I've been doing lately.

Splits for my 9 mile run:

Mile 1 - 10:14 (best mile)
Mile 2 - 10:38
Mile 3 - 10:47
Mile 4 - 10:38
Mile 5 - 10:51
Mile 6 - 11:08 (slowest mile)
Mile 7 - 11:06 (started to get my 2nd burst of energy around mile 7)
Mile 8 - 10:45
Mile 9 - 10:35
Mile 10 - 10:47

I am very proud of my times for each mile!

Plan on getting out for about a 4 mile run tonight after Tim gets done with work. That will make my RunStreak 30 days!!
