I did my first six miler today. *That's 9.6 kilometers* I was running on a track because I'm currently out of town. I did the whole thing in 1:37...I feel like I totally kicked butt!
Sunday I have a three mile run and Tuesday is five, I'm going to concentrate on running more and walking less this next week, but I feel like my training is comig along well.
I really enjoy the running. I need a couple of things, definitely I need some sort of hydration system, I've got an eight mile run next friday. I would like to get a heart rate monitor so I can stay in a good zone. I'm not sure I'm challenging myself enough.
A couple of things are happening that I never would have expected, the first being, I like running, I like the exercise. If you know me, I'm sure a gasp of surprise may have escaped your lips. :)
The second, I've read on running boards that as you run more your eating habits improve, so you can run better. Slowly but surely I'm eating better, not because I want to lose weight...I want to run as well as I can.
Trust me, I don't know wth is wrong with me ;)
