Week 7: Huffing and Puffing

1. I ran for three, FIVE, and then three minutes this time. I have never sweat so much. I looked and felt like a Biggest Loser contestant after a challenge. I couldn't do another five minute jog, so I walked uphill for 5 minutes instead. 1.41 miles

2. Did it again! It hurts, but I've discovered the joy of running sloooowwwwly. 1.43

3. After my treadmill time, I walked the mile track outside the Islands Y. Something weird happened. I can't really explain it; it's kind of fuzzy. But there I was, intending to walk an extra mile to just log some distance in prep for a 5K coming up, and I had the thought, "I'd like to jog. I'll just jog to that lake." When I reached the lake, I think what I was feeling was the desire not to stop, so I continued jogging around to the other side of the lake! WHY? Why did I run when I didn't have to? I thought I hated running. I'm so confused.  2.5 miles!
