I recorded personal bests (recording from the past two months) in the mile, 2 mile, and 5k today. My first sub 9 mile in probably 7 years...it's not blazing by any means but the fastest I've done in the past two months since I started running again.

I wasn't looking to hit a hard pace from the start but I realized at the mile that I was on pace for 27 minutes and I wasn't going to keep that up. I forced myself to slow down a bit and then a few hills helped with that as well.

Good time. I can't believe I did it. Surprisingly a little fatigued but happy.

Congrats on the run!
