8.02 miles
7:53 pace
Started a run yesterday morning, but stopped after about a hundred yards because I felt the beginnings of some impact pain in my legs. Decided to take a day off rather than push through. Today the legs were better, and although I felt like I was taking it easy, was still able to keep the pace under 8:00. Went a little farther down the path this time and broke eight miles. I think there is a real mental component to running distance, and once your confidence is gone, it can be very unpleasant to keep moving. I feel good that I'm improving on distance now, and may be ready to start another marathon training program by the time the weather starts to cool in another month.

Sounds like you're doing well. It good to take days off when your body sincerely complains.
