    i'm new here, and just started running again 6 weeks ago -- yesterday was my first 20 mile week. i have been lurking here for a few days, and it's been so inspiring to see everyone getting out there and racking up miles.

    this week:

    sun - rest
    mon - 4.25 mi
    tue - 4.5 mi
    wed - rest
    thu - 4.5 mi

    just i signed up for my first 5K in a couple of years. my goal is 31 minutes, but secretly hope i can break 30.

    ha! after reading all the posts here, i thought i need to work harder!

    today: 5 miles

    around 3.5 miles, i thought, "this is probably the best i am going to feel today." that thought picked me up and got me through the last mile and a half.

    sat: 4.5 mi

    total: 27.25

    today's run was around a lake where i'd run a race 5 years ago. looked up my time from back then -- found that i ran it 2.5 minutes faster in 2007. something to shoot for! i was not pushing too hard, since this was my first off-track run since i began running again 6 weeks ago. i would not say it was hilly, but there were stretches where there were uphill / downhill inclines. i wanted to save some energy, in case the uphill-ish parts were tough, but ended strong with plenty to spare.
