I ran my first 5K (run/walk/run) today and I am so excited. The 1st half of the 5k I was little worried I wouldn't finish, however, the last half I rocked it, I could have gone further! My first mile was 16:15, so I figured my last mile would be around 18. However, I was so happy to see my last mile was 16:42. I was happy to be that consistent.
One of my first goals was to run a 5K and I thought I would run in a 5K race. When I started looking at races I realized that I am so slow I didn't really want to go run around other people. Then one day I saw this T-shirt (see above) on the internet. I loved it, so I bought it for accomplishing my goal, I felt like it was very fitting for my running ability.
I think it was interesting today. I ran at a 20/40 pace, and my pace is almost exactly the same as it was on 15/45. I am not discouraged right now because my goal is to go further both in total distance and in time of continuous running. I am heading in the right direction on both of those.
3.1 down 10 miles to go!
