Much better today. Ate breakfast like normal, ate a good lunch, did snack on M&Ms but every girl needs a little chocolate, and I guess I didn’t really eat supper – popcorn again. BUT I went running and ran 1.25 miles in 9:02. Damn. I couldn’t believe it and half of that distance was with a shoe untied but I didn’t want to stop. Then I walked a ¼ mile and then jogged a slower but steady pace for another 1.25 miles before walking around half the lake and back home. It felt good.
The 9:02 really amazed me, especially coming off a cold like I have. I was breathing pretty hard, but I probably could have made it another quarter if my shoe had been tied and if I knew I had to. I think I could safely say that would have been about 11:30 for a full mile and half since I was slowing down on that last stretch of about 100 yards or so. Pretty good.
I’m planning to run with a friend next week while at home for guards but he runs 4 miles at a time. UGH! SO much more in shape than I, but if I keep going each night or morning I should be okay by the time we run.
