Felt really rough, but actually one of my better long runs.

I felt tired, but I ran pretty well for the shape I am in. I had a lot of help though so I cannot by any means take the credit for this run. I owe it to my family and friend. My brother in law who hates running never likes to workout ran my first mile and a half with me. I ran with him since he was out to help me and we ran a 9:11 pace the first mile, slow yes, but I was grateful he was willing to do something he hated to help me out. Next after him I jogged back and forth until my sister was able to take off and do 4 miles with me. We were averaging about 8:20’s for these four miles and that was good. I then took off for the next 7 miles with my friend Stephen where we started out our first two miles together at 15:25, whoa way too fast after what I had just done and for what I still had to do. We then slowed it down that next mile and did alright for the first 5 miles together. I then stopped for a restroom break before my last two at my sisters, I know sucks to stop before my last two like that, but I had to go! My last two were nothing short of a disaster I ran horrible, my right glut was cramping and tightening up on me. I struggled home and finished in 1 hour and 50 minutes. Over all it was good, but none of that would of been done without the effort and support of Ryan, Emily and Stephen! THANKS GUYS I LOVE YOU!!!!
