I ran 7 miles

Yes, that's right. I ran 7 miles this morning. That's the farthest I've ever run. I'm not going to lie; it was hard. Fortunately, for the first half, I had other team members to chat with making the miles sneak by. On the way back I got separated and ran by myself, sans ipod. I just kept repeating, "I can do this" to the rhythm of my footfalls, and sure enough I did it. I'm a little queasy right now, but overall I feel good and I'm proud of myself for passing this milestone (no pun intended).
