Stopped once on the 1st half for about 30 seconds. Then on around mile 6 I was getting what felt like bad foot blisters and at one point I had to stop for another 30 seconds. So in total I took about a minute off.

Impressive. 9 miles is pretty far. Keep that up and you'll be looking like an ethiopian.

By the way, with the foot blisters. Depending on how you run, the shoes might be too loose or you need thicker socks. Also to get your feet toughened up, you may want to walk barefoot as much as you can.
