Couch to 5k!!!

I ran the entire 5k!!! And it was VERY hilly. And it rained the whole time so I was carrying extra weight from my shirt, pants, and shoes. I definitely played the mind games... At 7:30 I was like " I've run 8 minutes before, I can do this." then at 9 minutes I was like, " my workout today is supposed to be run 10, walk 4... I can at least run 10. Then when I hit 1 mile the guy called out "11 minutes!" and I thought "well the next workout for this week was going to be run 20, so I'll do that." and then when I got to 20 min I was like "I might as well run 2 miles-I an so close anyway" and then after that I was like "I think I might be able to do the whole thing" and I did.

Yay!

  2. He had a fussy baby whose feet got wet, so he had to stop at one point to add some layers to Levi. But he ran/walked the whole thing in around 50 minutes or so. :)
