Distance: 6.00 miles (9.65 Kilometres)

Notes:
My first 'long run' and I almost quit 3.11 miles into the run! I think it had something to do with it being extremely hot and me wearing a long-sleeved running shirt. In any case, I stuck to it and did my 6 miles. This run'll teach me, though, that I should get up earlier so that the sun doesn't get too hot. It might also help to wear a singlet or a non-long-sleeved shirt next time. I also need sunscreen as I have developed an embarassingly bad farmer tan on my legs. >.< Next week... 7 miles!

Notes:
This is my first official training run and it wasn't too shabby. My sis and I ran at the Redondo/Torrance Beach strand and normally, I'd admire the sea while running, but this time, it was gross; the ocean (or at least the part that I can see) did not have a blue hue. Instead, it had a murky brown colour! Ewwww! Later, after my run, I saw a sign on the beach that read something like 'Water is contaminated with raw sewage; Do not come in contact with Ocean water'. It was really gross. But what grossed me out some more, were the people swimming (or surfing or scuba diving). Um, can you say, bacterial infection? Anyway, I digress. The run was awesome and I can't wait to do it again (tomorrow).
