Did it yesterday and it actually felt good. Today, on the other hand, I'm a bit sore; I'll definitely be stretching a bit throughout the day, and making an attempt to move around as much as possible. Somehow last night I managed to shave a considerable amount of time off my total/average. I think that I feel a bit more motivated when I run outside than I do when I try to do so on a treadmill. In the end, my time was about 1hr 40min, or ~9:35 miles according to map my run. If that's really how I'm doing, awesome - if it was a one-time think because I was feeling at my best, awesome as well. I'm just happy that it went so well; hopefully when the time comes the weather remains as nice as it was yesterday evening.
Now I need to investigate the whole gu thing - gels that one uses while they're on long runs to get more energy. Apparently this is something I should have been using throughout my training, so I have some catching up to do! Thanks to Julie and my brother for educating me - I'm too much of a newbie sometimes.

wow, you're gonna kick my ass, sister! that's some fast running.
I think it was a good day. I'm usually in the 10:30 range
yeah, i can't even keep a 9:30 average for a 5k... srsly.
I don't think the weather could have been any more perfect for my own running needs than it was yesterday evening. Perhaps nature takes requests?
