Another Day, Another Milestone

I'm happy to report to you all that I was successful today! I set out to run 1 mile away from my house, and return (2 miles total) without stopping. I honestly didn't think I would be able to, but I decided to go for it. The first mile was pretty easy. When I got to the end of the 1st leg and turned back home, I was still going strong. I had made it 1.5 miles with a little mental push. My legs were starting to lock up on me but I only had a little left to complete! I kept pushing, pushing, pushing. I could smell success. Only a few feet left! I did it. The feeling was unbelievable. There is a quote that I kept saying to myself in my head: "The pain you feel today will be the strength you feel tomorrow." ~ Robert Moore. I hope that you all got your runs in and please, please, PLEASE leave a comment denoting your distances! I would love to hear from all of you!
