First endurance test 90 mins

So today was my first real endurance test, it was a 90 min or longer run at a slow long distance speed. I wanted to get an idea of were my endurance stood as of right now, so my last run before the start of this program was this. I covered 13.2 miles a half marathon and it took me about 2 hours and 25 mins I was able to maintain a 9 min mile pace until mile 10 then I started slowing a bit. The last two miles were of course the hardest an were broken up by walking and running.

I was lucky enough to have a friend good (joe moore) enough to help me out with suppling me with water and carb replacement(pediolite which worked great) drink every 2 miles. I luckly suffered no injuries other than blisters, muscle cramps, and my ulcer faired back up but it will go away in a couple hours.

Ill retest myself later in the program to see if I do any better, worse, or the same and also see how I feel.
