It's MONDAY! and it's a short work week! It's time to celebrate family and all of God's grace! I'm hoping for good things this week.
Monday morning started with a full night's sleep. How that translates in my world; my baby slept the whole night without waking for milk!!!!!!!!!! YAY! After a full night's sleep, I lazily slept in an extra 45 minutes and rushed to work today. Smartly, I packed my running shoes the night before!
During my lunch break I punched out 3.1 miles on the treadmill in 40 minutes. I just can't seem to do just 3 miles. Once I hit 3.0, I have to sprint the last 0.1 miles so I can prove that I just jog/ran a 5k. It's pretty silly really. Today's 5k was easier than the last 5k. Don't get me wrong, it wasn't EASY, it was easier. I'm a long way from that "warm up with a 1 mile jog" point. I laugh at running plans that start like that.
At what point should I start thinking 10k? Hmmm... I'm sure that the next few weeks I'll work on time and distance. I want to get to that point where I can jog for 50 minutes with 5 minutes of warm up and cool down. I'm cooling down a lot faster these days! I get really red faced when I work out, but it seems like the redness is going away faster (thank God!). I'm excited to think that some day I'll be able to work out at lunch and not have everyone know it who sees me before 3PM.
gotta run!
