10 Miles!

From the title of my post you probably know what is coming up next... I ran 10 miles today! Woo Hoo! (I'm cheering for myself, I know!) I was just so excited. This is by far the furthest I've gone, EVER. A few weeks ago I did 6.5, but since then I've been sticking pretty close to 5 3 or 4 times a week. But I hadn't jogged since Thursday, so I was feeling like I really needed to get in a good run, and I wanted 10 miles. I was actually watching last weeks Biggest Loser while doing it, and all of the contstants did a half marathon... So I was feeling pretty motivated and thought I might try for 13 miles, but I was running out of time. (and for the first time since I started running, I was feeling it in my knees... I don't want to be too sore, I've got too much training to do.) I'm feeling like I'm gonna do pretty good in our relay race. My longest leg is only 6 miles I think, and I've still got another month to train, and I felt good at 6 miles today. I can't wait for our race. I am so stinking excited to get to the sun I can barely stand it... only 4 more weeks!
