I ran an 8-mile (roughly) course this morning nonstop, making it the longest run I've done in my life. It felt great, and I think the only thing that was uncomfortable about it was downing too much water at the end and getting a stomach ache.

I plan on making this a weekly occurrence, and I'll see if I can push the distance even further.

Just wanted to share and hopefully inspire.

    Tomorrow I'm running 20 miles, in prep for the Marine Corp Marathon at the end of October. It's my first marathon, and yes running is addictive.
