Training

So this past week was a lot more successful than last week. We started off running 4 slow miles on Monday, speed drills Tuesdays and Thursdays, and a fast three miles on Friday. Wednesdays are optional, and Tony worked an extra 10 hours, so we decided to opt out.

I actually feel like I am getting better; like I am getting faster. I still hate running, but I feel like I hate it less. My speed drills are getting shorter and I am slowing down less. I think this gradual training program might actually work. I think I could actually do this half marathon thing after all!

Plus, I ran into two people I haven't seen in a long time and they both said I looked skinny and grown-up. Who knew? I have always been frumpy and dressed like a college student. My few adjustments to my wardrobe and hard work-out are paying off. I have even lost 5 pounds already!
Let's hope I keep it up!

Namaste
