I haven't felt much like writing, not really sure why. Up until today, I hadn't run in 6 days. For the last 5 days I was in Atlanta participating in destructive behavior that my body now hates me for. Good times with friends though. If I want to get ready for the 15k coming up at the start of May, I have to get serious. I know I sound repetitive. But it is my blog, so I can keep saying it all I want!

Today I ran 3 miles in 34:55. I walked twice, once for 2 minutes at 1 mile and again for 2 minutes at 2 miles. My breathing was not as controlled as I would have liked but I assume that is because I had sat on my butt for the last 6 days! I have a 2 mile scheduled for Friday and 4 miles for Sunday, which will be my longest run ever!

Run:
3 miles-34:55

Need Stronger Willpower!!

Yesterday was a 3 mile run, it felt really good and I didn't walk. Don't feel like writing much today, pretty tired and stressed out. Went to the gym today, briefly, just to introduce myself to the machines. I also ran a half mile just for fun. Yup, I ran for fun. Never thought I would say that. I have decided to do Hal Higdon's training program for a 15k. 9.3 miles baby! There is a 15k at Disney in the beginning of May, so it is perfect timing.

Ok, I am done for now. Sleepy.

Oh and the willpower part is still my weakness for late night snacking...

I may just break my goal time

2 miles for me today. And again it was hot and nasty outside, I ran at about 3:00pm. I was very surprised at my pace to start, it was about 10:10 or so and the first .5 miles were uphill. I had to walk at 1.25 miles because my throat was so dry, but i only walked for .15 of a mile. I am a bit frustrated at still walking every now and then. Sunday's run calls for 3 miles straight. I will do it without walking.

I have a 2 mile road race coming up in about 3 weeks and I wanted to complete it in less than 22:00. Today, with walking, my time was 22:23, so in 3 more weeks, I think I will more than beat my goal! Maybe even break 20:00!!!
