I prepared myself had some gel packs ready to go and got up at 5:45am and got out the door by 6:20 or so
Mile 1- 9:47 it was the beginning there was no sun out yet I was feeling good very good
Mile 2- 10:26 slowed down a bit but all and all I thought the pace was good maybe I could of gone faster but the thought of I still need to do that workout in between I might be beat by the time 4 miles get here
Mile 3- 10:27 pace is still good there's a few car's out not so many red light but all in all I'm feeling good
Mile 4- 10:33 I stopped at the 7 eleven since they had grass and I wasn't trying to do jump squats on the sidewalk. Oh god how am I going to do this?!? I'm not completely beat but the thought I hate lunges!!! Ugh 150 good God help me! Round 1 is completed not so bad I have some water and my 2nd pack of gel. Round 2 ok I feel my legs are burning at this point it feels like the lunges are my recovery. More people are out driving, I get crazy looks from everyone they are probably thinking (WTF is that girl doing if I did not have to be out right now I would be in bed) . Round 3 at about 15 jump squats I feel like my legs are gonna fall they are buuuuuurning OMG I just want to be over not because I'm tired but because I feel the burn. Ok done now on to the next....
Mile 5- 10:32 pace is good considering all that I just did after Mile 4 my legs feel tight but not so bad and then....I feel pain on my left knee
Mile 6- 10:59 my knee is hurting and I pray every light I hit is red so i can get to stop and stretch, with my pain I continue it's not like I can't walk but it is slowing me down
Mile 7- 10:34 I need to change the music I have the ipod set to shuffle but I keep getting R.Kelly I don't exactly want to listen to R.Kelly when all I can think of is getting to the finish. I need something more up beat so changed the ipod to another play list and it give me a good pace.All I keep thinking is what am I going to eat when I get home?!?!
Mile 8- 10:34 I just go hard I can't wait to get home stretch, ice, shower, and eat!

| Map of Route with Time per Mile |
All and all my average mile was 10:27 it took me just as long to do the whole run and workout as it did when I did just the run it self 1hr 36min. I got home had a protein shake and iced right after my shower. My knee was in so much pain I iced probably 6 times that day and I could not believe how hungry I was. I ate all day...really all day! It was pretty healthy eating and drank water like there was no tomorrow. After dinner went to the jacuzzi got back and iced some more I woke up on Sunday and no more knee pain, but the quads sure did feel nice and tight!
The workout didn't kill me like I thought it would I was able to get it done I just feel I could of done better, maybe if I didn't have knee pain . I had so much energy all day though. that I could not believe I thought I would of been up on the couch all day, but I was up running around cleaning, running errands I didn't want to just sit I had energy! Yessssssssssss I SURVIVED!
I'm ready for next wknd.....
