Ta Da!

Week 4, Day 1 - conquered!  I felt pretty darn good today!  I kept at a steady 4.5 while running, 3.5 when walking - only at level 1 incline, but I felt pretty good about myself when I was done.  I had some muscle issues earlier on, but by the end I really wasn't ready to be done.  So when it said cool down, I boosted my speed up to 5 and kept going for another song.  Then I realized I really did need to cool down and get on the road before traffic got horrendous.  Stupid traffic.  I'm looking forward to this weekend when I can run however long I want to!  I never ever ever thought those words would be coming from me.

Girls, I would just like to take a minute to step back and take a look at what we're doing.  I already know I'm not going to be running the entire 10k, I just took much time off, but I do know I'm going to be running at least half to 2/3 of it and I am so proud of myself!  We've all made such awesome progress.  We decided we were going to something, and we're actually doing it!  We went from fairly inactive people to wanting to run or do yoga/pilates.  Once we're all together again - I think we definitely deserve a pizza and some beer :)  Especially since we know we'll work it off the next day!
