Starries, you inspired me

To pack up and leave.






Just kidding. Too soon?

I went running last night. Ever since that heat wave, I have been hovering around a painful 20 minutes, but last night I did an easy breezy 25. Woot, woot!

Woohoo!

[starrieskies]

Go, Muddled, GO!!! That's awesome!!!!

Nice work, muddled! I haven't run since last Friday, but I set a new personal best 5k time! I'm attributing that to the fact that I was out of town in a totally non-humid, perfect 60-degree location. Now I can't wait for fall!

[starrieskies]

The temperature is one of the reasons why I prefer to do my running in the morning. It's usually between 55 and 60. As we get closer to fall, I may have to switch to afternoon runs, but I'm not sure yet.

yay! Go Muddled!

I finally downloaded a pedometer app and was disappointed at the distance I've been running. Around two miles including the warm-up walk. I need to step it up, man! Doing week 6 now. Some time I will map out a 5k route and run/walk it all and see how I do.

[Muddled]

Way to go, smock!! I still haven't run a full 5k.

gault, this is one of my fears... But, in week 6, you only run about 20 minutes total(up until day 3), so somewhere around 2 miles should be about right, no?

[gault]

I hope so!

Go, Muddled! I think this evening's run is around 25 minutes too, can't remember. I am so glad you found it easy - I'm a little less nervous now!

[starrieskies]

I was surprised at how easy it was for me too. You're going to rock it, malibu!!

[Muddled]

Just to be clear, I was already well passed this point in c25k. I regressed, lol.

I am sure you can do it, Malibu. Go for it!

Go muddled! I just came over here to see how the running is going. And also for reassurance. I am signing up for a 10k. It's in one month. I'm up to 5.25 miles already so I should be fine right? I have a cold which is derailing me at the moment. Ahhhhh!

Yes - you will do great! 

[Muddled]

Thanks, jaylea! I am back on the horse again. 30 minutes at a time.

You are going to rock your 10K! Easy peasy!

This particular 10k is sponsored by Shipyard, so you get beer and pizza at the end. There's some motivation.

The best kind of motivation. 

[Muddled]

That sounds like fun!
