Wow, morning glory!

Got up this morning and thought I may run 2 miles. Bill just wasn't waking up so I let him sleep. As I was getting my shoes on, he got up and I told him he didn't have to go with me. He told me to be on my way and just go.

As I got going, about .25 in, I realized I didn't think I was going to do 2 miles. I started out fast and just wanted to keep going. Still fighting the scratchy throat, so I also didn't want to overdo. Although I tired about 0.5 mile in, I kept going pretty fast. About .75 into the run counterclockwise around the neighborhood, I passed Bill going the other direction.

Ran 1.02 in 8:35 (8:26/mile pace). I think that's the fastest I've ever run a mile! Less than an 8:30 min/mile! Wow!
