I have had a few more runs, but Saturday's was by far my most exciting. I went out with people who were way out of my league. They have the ability to run so much faster than I do. They were nice enough to let me run with them and they already had it planned to not be one of their fastest days.
I started out great with them. About 4 miles in I thought, hmm I wonder how long I can keep this pace. We got to 5 and I thought we would be turning around and we kept going. I thought oh no. But I was doing ok. It was hard but I was alright. Becky and Jenni were doing just fine. I think it was a breeze for them. We turned around at mile 6. Whew. On the way home and about 3 miles left. I was tired, and my knee was getting tight. But I did make it.
I hope they let me tag along on a few more of their runs. Maybe one of these days they will even be able to throw in some hills.
We ended up with a 12 mile run. It took us 1 hour 43min and 23 sec. The average pace is 8min 36 sec per mile.
