8 miles

I set a new world record on Saturday. I ran 8 miles in 80:29. In case you're wondering . . . that's AWESOME (for me). Woo Hoo! 10:04 per mile for 8 miles. I'm so proud. I'm also in disbelief cause it's such a good time for me. It was a really hard run but in the end it was so worth it to see my final time.

My husband and I are both registered for the half marathon now. He runs quite a bit faster than me. The whole reason I pushed myself on Saturday is cause I would love to run the same pace as him and enjoy running together. That would be cool. Not in the half marathon. I'm realistic enough to realize there's no way I can keep his pace for 13 miles. But it would be fun for a few miles during weekly runs. The thing is I don't want him to slow down for me. That would be lame. But I don't know that I have it in me to push myself enough to run at his pace.
