That's right! I made it through 4 weeks (with 1 week off while on vacation) of my 5K training plan. The problem with this is that I am supposed to be running a 10K in 2 weeks! I think I've decided to not worry about my time. It is really getting to me mentally. I don't have room for that in my head right now. I just need to focus on finishing standing up! I know I can do that!!! I may not run the entire thing, but that is OK!!!
If I have to be put in the last corral at Disney's Half - then so be it. Again- I just have to finish. If I don't get any pictures with any characters, it will be ok. I just have to finish!
Today's Run:
I was worried since I haven't run in 1 week. I started out slow, but then was able to get a good pace going. I did my first 3 minutes pretty easily. The first 5 minutes weren't too bad either. The 2nd 3 minute jog was a little tougher & the last 5 minutes was pretty tough- but I didn't stop! Literally- I kept going! It "ended" 2 houses down from my own, but instead of turning left, I went right and jogged/walked around 1 more block. It wasn't much more, but it was more of a mental challenge- I knew I didn't have someone in my ear telling me it was time to walk or run. I had to make myself go. Once again, it was tough- but I did it. So, here are my stats:
Time: 28:29
Distance: 2.11- yay! I finally went 2 miles... ha ha
Min/Mile: 13:29- not bad considering I did a bit of walking in my "extra" stretch
So there it is... I didn't fall out or throw up, so I guess it should be considered a good morning. :)
