Making Progress and Feeling Good

Today was my long run. I am trying to run MWF and then longer on Sat because I have more time. Today I set my ipod for 40 minutes rather than miles. I ran out 20 minutes then turned around. I was happy when I returned to the spot I started with 4 seconds to spare. I have been working really hard to keep a constant pace (9 minute miles). My result was 9 minute miles, 4.44 distance. I weighted in at 205.2 and hope to get under that 205 soon. It would be awesome to get to the 200 mark by the race in May. Since I am increasing my miles I think I just might be able to do it.
