    I just pushed 5.8 mi for the first time!  A runner I know told me that I should double my regular run on Sundays so I did.  I don’t think 58 minutes is so bad either.  I am excited that I was able to keep my legs moving the whole time and didn’t stop pace (other than a crosswalk).  I just had to tell someone!  I’m confident that I’ll do well running the 5k in late April.  :)

    Eric,

     Huge congrats on the 5.8 mi!  It's an absolutely amazing feeling when you've finished and accomplished a big goal.  58 minutes is definitely not a bad time and don't let anyone tell you otherwise!  

    Good luck on those future runs and extending your journey further!

    You're welcome.  I always like encouragement and it seems to be in short supply in the world today.

    Eric,

    That is amazing! You should be so proud... I have never run more than 2 miles without stopping, I didn't think 5.8 miles was possible.  Good luck with your race in April!  I will be rooting for you.
