I hate Nike, so I'm revolting. I got up early and did extra, ending up with twenty two at 8:32 pace but died at the end. My buddy ran away finishing in 7:30s and I couldn't hold it.

You went 22 miles at an 8:32 on a training run? You're a freak.

We accelerated to 7:30s for the last five, but I died during the lasst mile after we slammed the hill. I was dead, or a pussy, I don't know which.

Holy crap Arch. You are a freak. Um, I will now sheepishly report my 5.5 in 50 minutes flat.

Hopefully after the wedding I can get the Nike+.

There I did one. I stopped about 50 times during the run it seemed. I'm such a girl... a girl that is a weak runner anyway. Now that I've got my first real effort under my belt, I hope I'll have some motivation to beat my times..
