Going for a Run

So... # 8 on my list is to run a mile in less than 8 minutes (funny how that worked out). To those of you who are runners... this may not seem like a big deal... but to me... this would be quite an accomplishment. I remember having to run "the mile" every Wednesday in Middle School. Needless to say... I was a consistent 1o minute miler. The only time I finished in 7 minutes 56 seconds (yes I remember the exact time) was when running the "Turkey Trot"... which was really a shorter version of the regular mile route that we ran around Thanksgiving.

Back to the present... yesterday my apartment mate came home from work and asked if I wanted to go for a run. To her shock... I actually said yes. I figured I needed to start working on my endurance (or something like that). So we ran about 4 miles (I think). I did pretty well the first half, but was breathing pretty hard at the end. As for the amount of time it took us to run the 4ish miles... I don't exactly know... but I do know that I am pretty sore today.

Oh... and I can't wait for tomorrow... since typically the second day is the worst for soreness.
