I Did It!!

I am so proud of myself!

I haven't been running in quite a while and yesterday I decided that I was going to start again. My friend Kathy wants me to run in a 10k in November, don't think that is possible, but I told her I would run in a 5k this fall and maybe a 10k this spring if she would run with me. Meaning she would have to slow waaaaaaayyyyy down.

Well I got on the treadmill last night and ran an entire mile. So it took me 18 minutes but still did it without stopping. I am getting ready to get on and do a mile and a quarter tonight.

The plan is I am going to keep it at this slow pace and work my way up to 3.5 miles. Once I can run 3.5 slow and confidently then I will start bumping up the speed a little at a time. I think that is a totally do able plan.

Other good news I dropped the 5 pounds I gained on vacation!! So I have my other 15 that I gained over the summer to lose now.
