I am getting there, slowly but surely. On Saturday I completed 8 miles in 1:30:16. The first few miles were honestly the toughest, which is odd. About 4 miles into my run it began to mist and then came the rain. It was actually quite refreshing. I was 2 miles away from our apartment when the rain began. I was determined to finish my long run so I just pressed on and finished my run in the rain. I was soaked when I got home, but the cool mist felt great as opposed to the 80+ degree weather that I experienced in the beginning of my run. It feels good to know I am getting so close to my half marathon. I can't believe how far I have come in less than 3 months!
P.S. Please don't text and drive. I CANNOT TELL YOU how many people I see texting and driving while I am running.
