Yesterday, before my English class I decided to go for a run outside. How it really happened is, I was telling Kylie how nice it looked and that I wanted to run outside. So she said go do it. So I did. I went on the Kayscreek trail (The old Union Pacific line) busted out C25k and Map my run and off I went. As I got thinking about it this is the first time I believe that I have every just went running outside. Soccer and other sports don't count. It was colder than I thought, I warmed up quickly though. It was harder physically to run outside, on the mental side it was soooo much easier. I enjoyed my time running. I even had time to take a pic to send to Kylie to tell her to leave the girl scout cookies alone.
For anyone who is interested in my progress you can view the weight side of it on this blog. As far as my mile time, I started out at 21:00 for a mile. This is what I am at now.
Ignore that McDonald's add, and don't eat there its nasty.
So I am at around 17:00 minutes and I am pretty happy with that. The 10k is coming up in July and I hope to finish in at least an hour and a half.
A little something I read every morning that helps to keep me going. I need tons of reminders all day long.
