I’ll surpass my goal by a big fat $4 this Friday when I get paid! I’ve let my savings slowly grow with direct deposit—just ignored it for months and now I am there. Yee-haw!

finished set 5
13 months ago
i let myself get a bit off-schedule – weekend fun, laziness – and monday was the first time i quit in the middle of my run! OY! ankle hurt, shins hurt, knee hurt, side cramp-i was over it. I think I only did a bit over 2 miles and then just ended at my boyfriend’s house-it’s closer than mine! But I have been stretching a bit more and today I am back on track and finished set 5. I felt MUCH better today than I did on monday.

sooo… today i started thinking about how i am going to train for the 10k – seeing as my goal for running a 5k is just around the corner. then i thought, why stop at 10? what about a half marathon? a full marathon?! I started reading about training programs and i know it will be quite an undertaking—but I am finding that i appreciate the slow’n’steady aspect of getting better and better at this.
i’ve also pinpointed my first real race! november 22—5k! yeehaw
this morning: 34 min:3 miles (walk 4, run 3, w 1.5, r 5, w 2.5, r 3, w 1.5, r 5, w 1.5, r 5, w 2) i know, crazy right? definitely carried a little post it w/ me to remember what the hell i was doing.
