Today's training was to run for 35 minutes. I honestly didn't think that was going to be possible. So I told myself that I knew I could jog a full mile(12 min) so I would do that first and if I felt like I could keep going I would. Well I just kept going. When I got out the the half way mark I walked for 30 seconds, to check my watch and to take in the fact that I had just jogged for 19 minutes and 21 seconds. I then resumed jogging and didn't stop until I had completed 35 minutes, a total of 4.42km(2.75miles). That's just short of my 5k goal.
What an accomplishment! I feel amazing. At times I didn't think that I was going to be able to do it, but I stuck to it, worked through the pain, and here I am. I have another two weeks before the race. I have no doubts that by then I'll be able to jog a full 5K. This is seriously amazing stuff!!!
