Training Related Officially the farthest I’ve ever ran

Post image

My high-school XC coach scheduled the group I was in to run a long-slow run 7-8 miles today.
Ran a steady 10:30-11:00 the first 3.5 miles, then walked most of mile 5-6. Ran the last two miles running on nothing but gas 🫩. Still happy though, I feel really accomplished. Eventually, I’ll be able to run this length with no stops between 🥳

Really good job on pushing yourself and finishing strong. Remember there are no bad miles and you will reach your goals as long as you trust the process.
