I SURVIVED THE FIRST WEEK OF TRAINING!!!
Ran close to 4 miles today (like 3.85) because I forgot one little leg of my route, but it wasn't enough to make too much difference. Time was like 40:55 (with 1:30 stetch and fix my hair and take off my fleece break). Pace was about 10:37. The weather was beautiful and M met me at the pond with D, our friend's dog who we are watching today. So much fun.
Today wasn't nearly as bad as I thought and I just kept telling myself, it's only 1 mile more than a 3 mile day. And I'm sure next week I'll be saying the same about the 5 miler... it's only one mile more than the 4 mile day.
I could feel all the muscles I have been working, like in a good way. This is pretty cool, I have to admit. I think I'm finally getting a taste of the runner's high!
Tomorrow... stretch & strengthen... can't wait!!
