No stops, which i am so happy for, and we did it in 46 mins, along with 2 Bentley's (hills....BIG hills...) Normally the ones who are trained on hills do 10 Bentley's, however, i'm only training distance at this point and time and knowing i could successfully run 2 Bentley's made me a very, very happy girl.

It was a great run, and the best part was that the girl who manages the Running Room here, ran with me and gave me so many pointers and helped me with my form.. When i woke the next morning, i felt that *feel good* soreness, but nothing felt pulled or too sore.. In fact, i felt wonderful!

While i know i still have a long ways to go in training, i love feeling the accomplishment and progress.. Runner's high! AND, this week is the first time i could say with pride that i am a runner, finally feeling that confidence!

How are you all doing?

This is AWESOME!!!!.......

I've been off the running wagon for a few months....tried to do too much for my last 5k.... ran one of my better times..... but I burned myself out in the process........ Right now, I'm working on the nutrition part of things so I'll have "fuel in my tank" for my next 5k and mud run...... I'm set to do a half marathon in October so this will be interesting...

Anyone out there who might have something to say about the nutrition part of running..... feel free to share..... I'd welcome any suggestions....

Every sence I had my back worked on I have been doing more and more of the things I use to do and do them well.With the exception of jogging or running,this evening it was fairly cool hear because of the very cloudy day,so I was out in the front yard and out of the blue I desided to give it a go.I am impressed I managed to go as far as I did,about a block and a half,the jogged up and down my drive way that has a good slant to it so it will work your leggs.Now I can add some jogging and build up to runing,I am glad I shure missed doing that.
