Day 43

It's cold here!!!!!! I had to wear a hat tonight while we ran...in the dark.

I ran a little over 3 miles tonight with a minute of walking in the middle. I ran the first 1.5 in 14:28 and the second in 14:17. Awesome!

Day 42

Yesterday we were 6 days away from our wedding....and our run was 6 miles. Coincidence....naw! hahaha. Our few weeks off have really made it hard to run - Physically for Evan, and mentally for me. I just didn't want to run yesterday. If Evan had not been with me, I probably wouldn't have.

I got into it once I got going and was really proud of myself for finishing. It feels good to be a runner.....especially when crossing the finish line!

Day 40-41

Schedule changes and sickness has put a damper on our running schedule the past few weeks...so we're a bit behind. We've tried to run the same week for 3 weeks in a row. I think we'll make it this time.

15 min. jog x 1 min. walk + a little extra job

Day 41 (success! 58 min.)

I went pretty slow, but ended up running around 4 miles. I call that a success, especially after 2 weeks break!

Day 38-39

I think we're getting back into the swing of things....and we're running a 3k on Saturday. I know it's not a lot, but I'm excited about an actual event. And, a free t-shirt. Yep, that still works for me.

We've made it to phase 4 of our training! Tonight, Evan ran with me most of the time so my pace was a little bit quicker. We finished our first mile in 9:06 min., 2nd mile at 19:10, third mile at 29+, and 4th mile was a little over 40 min. I think it was a pretty good run.

The sweatshop girls take to the track.....

Mom, Mamaw, Debbie, and I got in our morning exercise together today. I am so proud of my family for being active, especially Mamaw. She walked two miles this morning (which is her regular routine.) She walks 10 miles a week! I love it!

I kept a good pace today, even though I couldn't breathe through my nose and my ears started hurting from the colder weather. It is cold here! My first mile timed in at 9 min. 30 seconds. And that's with 1 minute of walking. I finished a little over 2 1/4 miles.
