One day after running 3 miles under 35 minutes for the first time, the McDonalds dashed through sub-40 temperatures in a startling 32:36.
The new mark not only topped their previous best by over a full minute, but surpassed an 11-minute mile pace, beyond any expectations the couple had set when they began training four weeks earlier.
"We had two goals originally," Joe explained. "To run the entire time, and to do it in less than 39 minutes. And we were hoping to meet those by December 1. To beat 33 minutes, and still have two weeks to train? That would've seemed cruel."
The list of things to be thankful for just increased by one.
