NSV - Running

BajaGTO

Throughout my journey I have been afraid to actually run outside. My fear is that without a machine keeping pace for me, that I would slow down or quit. So, I have stuck with the ARC trainer in the gym for the most part.

Yesterday, I was short on time so I decided to run outside. Part of me did it because I wanted to see if I could run a 5K. (I typically run 2.5 miles as measured on the ARC.)

I am happy to say that not only did I do it. I ran 3.5 miles in 40 minutes. I know that's not very fast, but the NSV is that I did it without every stopping to break or to walk.

Nicely done. You have inspired me, soon I will be to that point. I know that is what I need to do to get the burn I want!
