Finally was able to do a long run today.  Had to start at 4:45 am so I could be done in time for the girl's soccer games.  So I was a little tired from staying up later than I should have the night before.  The run was good though.  I tried to keep it at a 9 min average and was pleased with an 8:55 average pace.  I love the Garmin!
