5K Training!

Last week we started training for our next 5k in October! 

Can't believe how much better I can run! Well actually jog! I would love to be able to run the whole 5k next month and that's where we are headed!

We started out running in intervals of half mile at a time and we are currently doing intervals of  3/4 mile intervals with 1/4 mile walk at the beggining, in between and a cool down at the end! Saturday we start with 1 mile runs! We will be doing this three times and of course with 1/4 mile in between! All ours runs are a total of 3 miles.

I feel so accomplished after the run! There's a sense of pride after the run; knowing that you just ran as far as you did is a huge confidence booster! The great runner's high truly is what it feels like.

During my runs, is a complete opposite story! I feel like a turtle running through peanut butter! Sometimes it's embarrassing for me. I'm gasping for breath, wondering if I should take a shot of my inhaler, and also wondering if I should slow down. But my hubby is always pushing me to keep going and that helps a lot! 

Today he wants to just keep running until we can't run anymore! Let's see how far I can go!!
