Here's one way. After the first hour you have gone 5 of the 8 miles so that's 1 hour.

Now that leaves just 3 miles to go. If you can run 5 mph in 1 hour then it should take you 12 minutes to run 1 mile (5 * 12 - 60). So, it should take you 1 hour and (3 * 12)36 minutes.

Another way. Figure out how long it takes for 1 mile (12 minutes) and multiply that times 8 hours. (8 * 12) = 96minutes = 1 hour and 36 minutes.
