AM:

6 easy around the hood. no time for long run Amir game starts at 10 am.

PM:

20 long between Amir soccer games. we had 3 hours and 45 minuts between games so Beth drove everyone to luch and widndow shoping to kill time. Thanks to them they brought me water at mile 12. I really needed it the temp went up to 79 deg and suny.

mile 1 to mile 11:

I bounced the pace between 8:15 and 9:25. I was focused on not getting too excited and speed up early eventhough I was paced by speedy younger runer I stayed calm and kept the pace extra easy on the first 11 miles.

mile 12 to mile 16 I kept the pace between 7:00 and 7: 35 average about marathon pace. 

mile 17 to mile 20.17 extra extra easy I even walked and stretched few times. I was nerveous to pull or injure somthing because I never do a small run before a 20 miler with mp in the middle like i did today. Sore right knee (icing it as I'm posting this)  I think its all in my head. I cant wait to see how I feel in the morning during my easy run.
