Work on running paying off

So I have been putting in a considerable amount of time and effort in running this year.  For the most part, I have been getting in early morning runs and I did some statistics on it.  In the last month, I put in 60 miles in the last month where the average run distance was about 6~ miles.

Well today I found it has been paying off.  The 2 mile run I did for the Army physical fitness test ended with a finishing time of 14:20 seconds. While this is fast and I am thrilled to see such progress, I still have some work to get to the point of beat a personal record (PR). For those that are interested, the time to beat is 12:05 or faster.  That time was done in ~ 1992.  Its possible but it will take a great amount of work.
