I Was Fast. . . .sort of

So I am going to brag on my self just for a second. Mainly cause I don't get to brag much when it comes to running. Today I went for a 40 minute run w/Mason. His was supposed to not be a recovery run but at a comfortable pace. In case you aren't aware, Mason's comfortable pace is not mine, but he is tolerant of me and lets me run with him. Off we went, and he complemented me on my form :) I would say about 8 minutes in I was dropping back but not too terribly - that happens later. I won't bore you with the details but bottom line is I ran 3.95 miles in 35 minutes. Yay me! That, according to my mathmetician son, is just under 9 minute miles. I'm impressed even though I expect the only one really under 9 minutes was the first one. It made me feel good though. Too bad I can't do that for 13. Oh well, must train more.
