running farther than ever before

My previous longest distance run was 5k. I did that for the first time back on 5.15.07. Since then I've run for 5k four more times. Well last night I set a new personal best distance of 3.5 miles. It was on a treadmill at an even pace of 5mph so it took 42 minutes. But the plan isn't to stop there.

I'm official training for the Soldier Field 10 mile Race on 5.23.09. I've never run any official races so this is quite the goal. Part of me doesn't want to pay the registration fee yet because I'm not convinced I can do this. But I really want to do this. I'll keep you posted.

longer runs:
4.1.09 -- 3.5 miles -- 42:00

5k times:
10.6.08 -- 37:55
2.12.08 -- 36:46
6.24.07 -- 34:15
6.3.07 -- 36:55
5.15.07 -- 37:15
