7 mile progressive run.  I decided to do it while running mile 3.  I wanted to run one between 8:10 and 8:20, miles 4 and 5 were to be between 8:00 and 8:10, and miles 6 and 7 were to be between 7:50 and 8:00.  It worked out well.  Mile 6 goes under main street and I fell behind a little on the way of the hill and had to hustle to get 7:59.  I ran 7 a little faster than I needed at 7:48.  Overall pace was 8:09.  I don't know when it will happen but I want to average 7:30 so I can run 8 miles in one hour.  Just a goal I pulled out of the air and seems like it will be an accomplishment when I get there.

That is a great goal. When you do it, invite me - I'll try to keep up!

I've got 5 minutes to cut off, not exactly a small amount, but you're right allie. My problem has been long layoffs. I'll finish a marathon then drop off the map for several months and have to start over.
