Running update:

Tonight's run was divided between 3:1 (three min. run to 1 min. walk) and 4:2. I completed my first mile in a better time than my mile race just over a week ago. Feeling great about that.

I bought some running clothes this morning. Amazing what official running clothes in my favorite color does to my attitude. I was determined not to be wimpy tonight. When K would tell me the run time was up, I went a little farther a few times. No complaining tonight.

I told K I was a little worried that I wouldn't be ready in time for my 5K in September. She has much more faith in me than I do right now.

You've got plenty of time to keep training for the 5K! You're going to do great! :) Keep up the good work!

I believe you could do the 5k right now. You're just not giving yourself enough credit. Your body is an amazing thing and can keep going even when you brain says you can't. You'll make it just fine. Keep up the training even after the race since it makes you feel so good. As soon as you stop you'll really notice how much your body craves it.
