maxx_dugan Posted January 6, 2015 Report Share Posted January 6, 2015 Hello - I began running fairly seriously about a year and a half ago. Since then I have managed to complete 12+ 5Ks, and a couple of 4 - 5 mile races. As part of upping my game this year, I decided to sign up for the Akron Ohio Half-Marathon in 2015. To do that I've been working on extending my long runs in the weekend and adding some miles.This past Sunday I was able to hit the road and break the 10 mile barrier!! Running continuously for 10 miles is something I never would have imagined i could do a couple of years ago, and now here I am!! 1 Quote || Jack ||Adventurer / Scout || Level 0STR: 0 || DEX: 0 || STA: 0 || CON: 0 || WIS: 0 || CHA: 0maxxs-1st-challenge-no-excuses Link to comment
