i turned it up a little during the 5th mile tonight. turned in a 7:47!
holy CRAP! that was following a sub 9 minute for mile 4 (which i didn't know until i loaded up the run just now).
there was a lot of hockey-style-underhanded-fist-pumping-in-the-air and grinning ear to ear on the walk back to my apartment. ha i am still smiling.
i cannot believe i can carry myself 7:47 style!
oh baby!
