Nice Job Chica! Your times were pretty good too - especially considering you were sick! I wondered how your times stack up to the average for women your age so I looked around on the web. Here's a link to a great forum that I found:

The most helpful post that I found was...In general, for W<35, I'd say a sub 6 minute mile is collegiate level, sub-7 is what an age-group winner will have to run in most small races, and sub-8 is what most serious runners at that age can run. Sub-9 is probably about 50%, and Sub-10 is still slowish but respectable.
So all in all, I'd say you're doing spectacular for just starting your training. Keep it up!
Thanks for looking into this Steve! Everyone in pharmacy runs apparently so I asked Wayne (my pharmacist buddy that lives in Marla and Rands ward) and he said for a half marathon you want to go for about 10 min miles. I am not too far off from that and I am ok with that considering I have only run 6 times.... ever. Haha. just kidding 6 times for these training purposes. Yesterday I actually started feeling the stride of this game and feeling a slight improvement. Huzzah! I think I am on track! Woot!
