Laces

Was lazy and forgot to post yesterday...

Ran 6 miles (!) in 52:13

The story:
I was doing SO good, by mile 5 I was starting to feel the fatigue coming but I knew I could hold out for at least another mile. My running shoes thought otherwise. As soon as the treadmill read 5 miles my shoelace decided to play dirty little shoelace games and untied itself. I was livid. Of course I had to completely stop, bend over while huffing and puffing and becoming as red as a stop sign. I couldn't just start back again at the same pace I had been going, so I worked my speed back up after about 1/2 a mile, but knew that I would be done as soon as the numbers read 6 miles. Grr! Guess I'll be double knotting my laces from now on... It's not like my time was awful, it was actually very very good for me, but I'm sure I could have knocked off those 13 seconds if I hadn't have had to stop!
