For the first time in my life I ran SEVEN miles. I've never ran more than four miles straight through. I don't know where it came from, but I guess the obvious answer is the most likely; the constant persistence and continuous training for the last few months is paying off! Not only was I able to run seven consecutive miles, but I did it in exactly one hour. My natural running pace is at a speed of 45 second laps around the Rec center track which lands me at 8 minute, 15 second miles. I slowed down a bit after five miles, and ran about 9 or 10 minute miles. I'm so happy about it. Here's a pic of my jogging shoes and my shuffle which helped power me through those last 3 miles.
