10 weeks ago, running for 60 seconds nearly killed me... i didn't like it very much, but was determined to continue... and with lots of encouragement, i did... and i've actually learned not to hate running... i don't always enjoy it, but i don't hate it...
yesterday, at the gym, i ran for 15 minutes straight on the treadmill!!! that's about a 1.3 miles... i was amazed, and super excited...
i was hoping for the same results in the 5K today, but i think i started out a bit too fast, and ran out of steam before the first mile... i ran when i could, but had to walk a lot... still finished in just over 42 minutes, so i guess that's not too bad for a first time... there were about 30 people with official times after i finished, and even more after that (no official time after an hour)... so i wasn't the last person either...
and best of all, i think i would do it again... and maybe next time i'll do a little better (since i have a time to beat)... so yeah, i'm going to keep at it... and just see how it goes...
