So to date my average run was 4mils. I went up to 4.25 once. I started running at the beginging of the summer running .5miles.

There is this loop around my house that goes through3 towns and back to my house that I always though was long... so I made it my goal.

Well today I met me goal! I ran it!!!! It is actually 5.53 miles according to my ipod (nike +) I ran it in 56.36 which is 10.14average pace! I did not stop running once!

I am sooo happy I had to share!

    Well done, you must be soooo pleased with that. I began running last spring, and started just walking, then short jogs which eventually all joined up into a run. I thought I was too old to run at 49, but after a few admonishments on here I gave it a go. Last 3 days I have covered 11 miles a day...

    wow congrats! I set my goal at 40 miles in 4 weeks. we shall see it is getting colder (I live in Maine) and found that I need to bundle up more and it is not motivating at al...
