run 5 miles comfortably

I could comfortably run 5 miles in 45 minutes. I think a nine minute mile is pretty darn comfortable for this girl. I can’t even run a mile anymore. It makes me sad that I can’t. Running used to be so cathargic. I didn’t feel sane without it. I have become this couch potato who is so moody, my friends and family have expressed that they only like to be around me when I am medicated. Grr. If I can start a regime that will get me running 5 miles by Halloween, not only will it help me cope with my emotions, but it will get me back on track to health.
