Februrary 5th - 12!!!
Mileage: 12.3
Time: 114 minutes, aka 1:54 hours, aka <9:30 per mile!!!
Feeling: Holy crap...

So 12.3 miles. One more mile and it would have been a half-marathon but that kind of fun is saved for next weekend. Still, at a conservative 1:55 and 12.2 miles estimate brings me in at 9:26/mile. Taking away one minute for damn stop lights and taking map quest at its word, I get 1:54 for 12.3, which is 9:16/mile. Whoa.

Whoa because this was a morning run (9:45-11:40), there were lots of hills the first 5 miles and frankly, I thought I was running 12min./mile at the end. Even counting this at 9:30/mile, my time would have been ~1:56:50. On track for a goal of 10 min/mile for the entire marathon. Now excuse me while I go replace my current legs with a new pair. I think they're broken...
