Running Day 39
I MADE IT!!!!!!!! I have now officially run at least 1 mile every day between Memorial Day and Independence Day. As I mentioned before, I decided to sign up for a 5k for the last day of my challenge and I got a pretty rockin' time! You ready? 30 minutes and 42 seconds! Admittedly, by the standards of hardcore runners, this is not particularly impressive, but for me, it's awesome. For the record, that averages out to just under 10 minutes for each mile. For 3.1 miles! It's my best time ever. I did find, however, that running a 5k by yourself is not as fun as when you have someone (like my dear running buddy Meaghan or someone to cheer you on on the sidelines) with you. It's kind of boring before the race starts and then awkward once you finish (you're like, "Sooooo....I'm gonna go now...bye...no one...."). But anyway, time for some yoga, a shower, and a nap!
