Run Forrest, Run
When I think about this goal, I know that a) I’ve lost my mind and b) being good out here doesn’t mean I’ll be good at home. By the end of 2007, I want to run a 6 minute mile. My original thinking on this was actually to run the six minute mile and sustain it for four to five miles. Fsck that, it was the hallucination of a delusional mind. I’m going to be happy when I get to six minutes for one mile, maybe a mile and a half (for the physical fitness test).
The target is really going to be getting a six minute mile on an outdoor track. Thanks to asshats, I wasn’t really interested in running outside this rotation and the weather did its best to prove me right. Instead, I ran on the treadmill, and got down from an 8:10ish mile to a 7:06ish mile as of yesterday. Good, but when you’re running on a treadmill you have to keep running otherwise you hit your face on the ground and all the people will laugh at you.
It’s a pretty simple goal. It is going to be a challenge to achieve it though, so I am really looking forward to working on it.
