9 Miles on Dead Legs

The legs felt dead tonight and it was a struggle, but I decided I wasn't going to give up. I ran a mile for warm-up, and then 7 miles at marathon pace. That pace ended up being close to 9 minutes/mile until the last few, which were in the 8:30 range. To finish it off I ran a mile for cooling down. I think maybe I've been eating too much junk food, such as a cinnamon roll at work this morning. But it was for a fundraiser, so you can't fault me for that, right? Yeah, I need to lay off and eat healthier.
