First "long" run with the Garmin

I was so excited to finally use my Garmin for more than 2 miles! It was pretty chilly when I left the house at almost 5 o'clock, so I wore a long sleeve shirt and just straped the Garmin on over my shirt, which actually made it more comfortable on my wrist bone. But it didn't bother me at all during the run! It was really cool to see my current pace and how far into my run I was. I also LOVE the auto-pause feature. I have it set up to pause anytime that I am not moving...which is great for all the stop lights!  I drove to the neighborhood I grew up in (because there are a lot of light posts, and I am scared to run in the dark, hehehe) and unfortunately, this neighborhood is hilly. But it is good training! :)
Mile 1:    8:59
Mile 2:    9:28
Mile 3:    9:56
       4:     9:47
       5:     9:38
       6:    10:16 (HILLY!)
      7:      9:35
Average pace of 9:40
     My schedule called for a "long" run of 7 miles this week, but since my 8 miler was really only 7.73 miles last week, I decided to make up for it on this run. It all evened out! :) Excited for tomorrows cross training day of kickboxing! :) Rouge Underground here I come! Off to finally shower and spend time with hubby!
