Today I decided to see how long I could run at 8 mph (7:30 mile). So I started running on the treadmill. And to steal from the great philosopher, Forest Gump, I just kept on running - though not as far as he did.
I completed a half marathon, 13.1 miles, in 1:38:14!!!! This is 6:46 under my goal time! Looks like I need a new goal... Maybe not, running without the treadmill in my first half marathon race on February 26 will be a big enough challenge!
For now I will enjoy accomplishing my first of two running goals for this year, next the full marathon 26.2 miles! But I have until July for that...
