So I used to run in high school and freshman year of college....
after 2 years of being lazy, I'm trying to get myself back into it. (and my lord, its hard!!!)
I started off walking for 30 minutes- then realized that I could do more.
For the past few weeks I've been running until I have to stop and then walking until I catch my breath- usually about 4 minutes of running and 2-3 minutes of walking.
WELL! tonight I went out because it was so pretty and so nice outside and I started running and before I knew it I had run an 8 minute mile!!!
I continued on running and walking and did 6 miles in an hour and 15 minutes!!!!
I'm just really proud of myself....sorry, just had to brag.
