I really pumped it on the first mile again tonight. Uphill and still made it in a 9.5 minute mile. I think it was the last 9.5 minute mile of the night, but that is another story.

My brother ran the 1/2 marathon route today because he was paranoid about the grade. He said that it is really flat, so that should be a welcome change for me. My daily route is nothing but hills, so when I get to run where it is pretty flat, it is a relief.

Eating was under control today. That is a nice change. All is well.
