Week Three

1-17-12:  My good friend Sarah has informed me that she has started C25K today! Yay! I'm going to have a training buddy, plus my good friend Kimberly is going to go with me sometimes too!
                Back at the Y tonight. I'm swinging my arms to stretch before getting on the treadmill and I slap an Asian woman in the chest. Great start to the run. I'm repeating C25K week 2 this week, because it was hard and week 3 is really a jump. As I run I wonder again why I haven't peed on myself yet, and then it hits me that my touching-at-the-top thighs might be holding it in. This thought makes me

laugh out loud,

to myself,

in a crowded gym.
(1.15 miles)

1-19-12: Yay for my first buddy run! Sarah O. came to the Y with me this time and I ran for 1.54 miles in 27 minutes. It means so much to have you all encouraging and even joining me! I know I will be able to do this. Tonight's big question was, "What's the difference between running and jogging?"  I found out that 5.3mph is a fast jog for me, but 5.7 is definitely running. I loved running next to a friend.

1-21-12: My first morning run! Saturday morning at the Y is for basketball games, therefore I had my pick of treadmills. I have now completed three runs a week for three weeks! I texted with my brother Nathan during the walking minutes, which was fun. (1.46 miles)
