I officially began training for a marathon this week. My schedule goes from Sunday to Saturday, with a predefined distance to run each day. This week I ran 23 miles, but this morning I ran 14 miles. I have never run that far before and wasn’t sure I could make it but I did.
My First 14 Mile Run from Ted Murphy on Vimeo.
I am pretty happy with my time. I ran 14 miles in 2:04′ 30″ with an average pace of 8m52s per mile. I finished a half marathon (13.2 miles) in under 2 hours. Next Sunday I will run 16 miles, it will be interesting to see if I can maintain a similar pace.
Holy cow! That’s awesome 🙂 Congrats
I just tried to run 1.4 miles on the treadmill @ a 10 minute mile pace. Didn’t work. I’m not one tenth of a Ted.
Good stuff man, way to keep in shape.
Loving the new blog design also.
DUDE!!! TOTALLY AWESOME!! I’m seriously so impressed! I’ve been doing some walking …and feeling proud – but, dang! You’re WAY ahead of me!
GREAT job!! 🙂
Sammie said it’s hard to recognize you when you’re not singing crazy songs! Hahaha! 😀
Go Ted. Go Ted. Go. Go. Go Ted!
You rock! Keep going! You can do it!
Ted, you continue to inspire me, not to get out and run of course, but you inspire me none the less.
@BenSpark:
Happy I had an XShot to make the video with : )
Awesome! Keep it up, Ted!
@Ted Murphy:
Yeah, me too – reminded me I want to get one before Sammie and I go to Wash. DC!!!
(Sammie said, incredulously, “Is that camera on a stick?” And I said, “Why, yes it is, honey – and we need to get one before we go!” Once I explained to her how handy it was, she was like, “Oh cool!” And yes, Drew – I pointed out your pic and told her you were the one who told us about it! 😉 )
