I have a 5K on Sunday, and I just realized today that I should probably go for an itty bitty training run before the race. ;-) Ran 1.12 on the treadmill, then ran around in the backyard for a few minutes. I ran the first mile with no walk breaks, so I'm quite proud of myself for that. Can't wait for race day!!!! I'm not going for a PR or anything this time, I'm just focusing on having fun. I sure had fun today! :-D

I was bored, so I decided to just do a short, slow treadmill run with lots of walk breaks. Fun and easy. :-) I'm signed up for the Issaquah Salmon Days 5K again (that was my first 5K ever -- I ran it last year). That should be fun. Can't wait!

Happy running,

Running is fun while you're doing it, but right after and right before? Not so much. After horseback riding, I dragged myself down to the treadmill for a run, telling myself, "It's just two miles! Get a grip!" But once I got started, it wasn't so bad. I'm going to try to run farther later this week, and gradually work back up to 5K distance.

Happy running,

Yes, I know I haven't run in, like, six months, but for some crazy reason I decided to go for a run. This was a treadmill run. I didn't have to walk as much as I thought I would, so that was nice. Now I'm really hot and sweaty and stinky, but at least I ran, right? And I ran farther than I thought I would. I'll probably go for another run later this week.

Happy running,
