Bring it on Peachtree!

Woo Hoo! I just got done running 6.23 miles. And I have registered my best times! I am just so stinking proud of them, so I will AW here for a sec.

Today I completed my longest run (since having the Nike+), my fastest mile, my fastest 5k, and my fastest 10k:
  • Longest run = 6.23 miles
  • Fastest mile = 9'58"/mi
  • Fastest 5k = 30'15"
  • Fastest 10k = 1:01'52"

What what! I'm slightly excited, no? Maybe I'm still on my runners high, as I just got back from the gym 30 minutes ago.

Now, I'm not completely delusional. I do realize that this was done on a treadmill and in a temperature controlled environment, but in my defense I had the incline set at 1.0, so it wasn't completely flat. Oh well, I don't care, I did a 10k in less than 1 hour and 2 minutes!

This is seriously what I needed. My stomach was in knots today, thinking about the Peachtree. I always do this... I psyche myself out the week before a race. Come next Friday, I will be good to go.

I'm just so excited about my run today! Woo hoo for Runner's High!
