Week 7, Day 1. 25 minutes:

1: Take it easy. This will be much worse if I blow it all now.
3: This is easy. I can't believe I ever thought this was hard.
5: everything is so pretty. i love running. i'm glad i signed up for those 5ks
10: Should I look at my watch? Is it almost over? I shouldn't look. Oh shoot, I looked.
10:30: 30 seconds? That was 2 minutes for sure. OK, I'll stop looking now.
16: This sucks. I'm getting worse each run instead of better. I can't even breathe.
20: I can't go anymore. I'm going to have to stop and try again tomorrow or something.
22: I may die on the sidewalk. Someone will have to come and sweep my dead body away.
24: Just hang in there. Finish strong. Worry about breathing later.
25: I did it! I'm alive!
25:10: Can't. Breathe. At. All. Shouldn't. Have. Done. This.
35: That was AWESOME!!! OMG I LOVE RUNNING!!!!!!!!!

    Thats hilarious! And so true!
    Although I must admit - the more I run and the further I go I don't really look at the clock anymore!

    Some days tho I can barely run 1km without checking the clock and stopping .... and then the other day I ran 6.5km without stopping!

    Its funny how it all seems so great and easy once you've finished a run - until the next time your out and you think OMG - why did I ever think this was easy!!
