Did you jog the whole 24 miles or did you run walk it? 24 miles is pretty darn impressive either way.

Time is unimportant...

Isn't that what people say when they're going slow? Let's just say that I was averaging around an 8 minute mile. I thought it'd be nice to take a nice, slow pace...but, next time, I think I'll speed it up a good 20 seconds a mile to get it done a little faster.

8 minutes a mile for 24 miles is nothing to sneeze at. that would be about 3 and a half hours if you did that for the full 26 miles(3:28) thats quite a nice time.
