Finally sub 10 minutes!

I have a mile loop that I run in the mornings.

First loop 10 minutes flat.
Second loop - 9:54
Third loop - 9:40

Usually my first loop is the fastest and the last loop (sometimes I do 4) is the second fastest.

It's the first time I've averaged less than ten minutes since I started running 18 months ago. I guess the stars were aligned just right. They were pretty at 5:15 AM. :p

What a great way to start the day!

Yeah, I'm pretty euphoric still. :D I gushed about it to my students first thing this morning.
