…And some days, I just want to enjoy running my dogs around the neighborhood 😄

I pushed pretty hard today and I am so close to a sub 7 minute mile. I can’t believe I’m 20 seconds away from being able to run a mile in 6 minutes and something seconds. It seems like 20 seconds is all willpower. I could be wrong but I think willpower is going to be the difference between 7’20” and 6’59”. That gap doesn’t feel athletic at all. I’m going to do it, and it feels great knowing that.

Been on a speed kick lately. It’s probably far-fetched, but I’m wondering if a sub 7 is possible…….

Quick 1 mile to finish out the weekend right around 8 mins. I’m sad I wasn’t sub 8 again but it’s cool. I’ve been running low distances then stretching and lifting weights recently.

Today on day 71 I ran my fastest time since beginning this 100 days of running and my fastest time in years.

Back on day 24 I mused on if a sub 8 was possible. Today, I found out. I’m no expert but dang, a mile in less than 8 minutes at 250 lbs seems awesome. I’m pretty proud of it. I’m running less distance these days because I’m lifting weights again (which is probably why I’m a bit heavier). I’m thankful to my past self for only setting a mile goal. As of right now, I still intend to run the full marathon at the end, so that’ll be fun.

Total Miles: 169.28 in 71 days.
