Today I ran my fastest mile. Even running the whole time, the fastest I could get before last week was 11:30. Last week I shaved off 20-30 seconds and today... 10:07. I took a few 5 second breaks but it was ALL me! No walking! I'm so proud and excited. This means that now I just need to work on running more than 1 mile at a time and I should be able to do a 5k in 35 minutes or less no problem by the end of the year.

    Goo - what matters is how you race! Anyone can run fast on a treadmill, lol. I can't run very much on concrete. Wears out my legs real quick! My fastest 5k on a treadmill was 37:50, fastest 5k race on mostly road and sidewalks was like 41:something.
