run a 7 minute mile

6:55 tonight. so sayeth the ipod.

it’s been a while, but i managed a 7 minute mile last night. +/- five seconds. the nike +ipod said 7:05; the treadmill said 6:55. we’re going with 7.

about three weeks ago i managed a mile in 7. still want to do it 2x times before i cross it off the list. maybe next week.

tried to run it last week, but the electricity went out a minute in. it rearranged my kidneys and spleen when i came to a stop. but all isn’t lost. i tried again today and made it. barely. i think i originally said 3x and it’s done. i think i’ll move that up to five. so 3 more times…

no update in a while, but i managed a mile in 7 minutes today. very rough. we’ll see if i can repeat it next week. two more times and i’m calling this one done.

i missed running for about three weeks and have lapsed. i still managed 8 minutes, so not all is lost. hopefully regain 7.5 or less over the next week or so….

7:31 best time yet. almost died on the last .25 miles.

7:35. and it’s rough. i also ran a mile in ten minutes with twenty lbs strapped to my back. i’ll get there. slowly.

managed 7:35 not long ago. bought that nike + ipod. we’ll see how it goes….

on wednesday evening and didn’t get to speed things up. next week probably won’t be any better since it’s a URI of some sort.
