Did it!

8 miles... Maybe just a hair short, but good enough for me today. I started off confident and strong, and after about 30min turned to sloppy and jelly like. However, no one said it had to be pretty. It was a good chance for my mind to meander. There are lots of things in my world to kick around, and a good long run is a helpful (healthy) place to do that. The endorphines are also a nice bonus that I don't get with the 3 milers. As I stated before... running was always a form of self medication. Time to go eat, replace all those calories burned away.

Today: 8 miles
Week: 12 miles
