family time
We had a 10.5 miles long run this morning on a really hilly route. My run was great. Better than great! I was able to hold a 9.30 or less pace for almost the whole run. There was one big hill in the middle of the run where I was closer to 11 mins and the last mile was pathetically slow. The hills and distance had killed my legs.
Average pace was 9.49 min/mile. Superfast!
After the run, I headed over to my parents house for breakfast. My best friend lost both her parent in the last week. They died 7 days apart. It's incredibly sad, but makes me very thankful of what I have got.

Nice run...if I ran 9:30 (if I even could) I'd be wheeled away on a stretcher after I finished.

Wait you've been "taking time off" and still managed a 10 miler, you've been fooling us all.
I can't even imagine what your friend is going through. Makes my heart hurt.

Nice run! Nice pace!
My condolences to you and your friend. :(

That's sad.
Congrats on the run and pace... although we only call sub-5:30 kilometres (8:51 miles) 'superfast' ;)
