NSV mile...haa

Okay, this seriously isn't a worthy NSV for here but oh well XD I haven't been able (or haven't tried!!) to run a full mile for about three years or so since P.E. in school, and I just got back from running a nine-minute one! Please hear me when I say that this is may be a very small victory for most but it is a very huge step for me, and take into account that the road was very uneven and hilly. I went outside and discovered that it was raining, but that excuse was invalid. Sure, I run now and then, in intervals with walking, but I haven't just gone out to run a mile just like that. I almost gave up the last 1/10 of the way, which btw was when I was cresting the biggest hill in that direction, because I thought I was going to puke, faint, die, or all of the above. But I finished, man did I finish. My heart kept beating hard for many minutes following the end, and now I have a headache, but I still think it was worth it. I even had energy to run a bit more, just for the heck of it! Woo!
