I just wanted to announce today that I ran my fastest 5K ever last night! I completed it in 31:18! I wish I could say that it was easy, but it was really hard for me--my legs just don't go that fast! And my lungs, they could barely keep up! I nearly gave up the run about 2.8 miles, but kept screaming at myself to DIG!! It felt great when I was done--well, once I caught my breath anyway.
I have to work today (on my day off) so I had to put my usual Friday morning run off until this evening. I am planning another 5K, only a really easy one this time. I have been slacking so much on running I don't want to push too much this week on my first week back on schedule. I also plan an easy 30 minute run this weekend although I might change it to a walk depending on how my legs feel.
I might have bought myself a Garmin 405cx last night. I'm still deciding whether to admit it or not. ;-)
You GO girl!! Congrats on the fabulous run and the Garmin. :)
ReplyDeleteCongrats! Runs like that are what make them all get faster. Keep it up and you'll have a sub 30:00 in no time!
