My longest run yet: 8 miles! It has taken me so, so long to get there - I did a seven miler last summer, but mentally kept myself from going for 8 - until yesterday. I am sooo happy!
Now resume your posting about double digit long runs, and sub 20:00 5 K's. I'll get there someday....
Well, maybe not the sub 20:00 5k....
You are not alone...neither will I. I'm happy to break 30:00.
And ^5 on the longest run to date. I know you'll be hitting the double digits this summer!

On my training log --- for the first time EVER -- every visible week (except the new current week - of course) has 40 or more miles per week........
Always before, there would be a week with less than 40 Mile -- but NO MORE.....

First weekend where I've ever run that much. Weather was fantastic and it was great!
TRUST THE PROCESS
Friday - 3rd overall female in a ~5K, my first overall prize ever! And we got cool hand-poured iron medals! Downside: the police set the turnaround cone out in the wrong spot and it was only 2.9 miles, so I can't really call it a new PR.
Sunday - Longest training run ever, 29 miles, at my local state park. And I ran all but maybe 10 minutes of it
*claps*
Good stuff!

John, that's my goal as well. And I would have it right now if it weren't for that one pesky 30-mile week back in July. Oh well. I'll get it after next week.
My small victory for the day: I hit all my goal times in my interval workout tonight.
