First Run

So I officialy kicked off my 100 by December today.

I ran 3.1 miles in 35 min or so (this picture includes a 5 min cool down after the goal was reached).  I figured that I should run a 5k since Thanksgiving is coming up.  This way I'm geared up for a Turkey Trot come Turkey Day morning! :)

This run felt pretty good considering how long it's been since I've done a run on my own.  I walked 3 laps of 12 but still went 100% the entire time.  I was surprised at how much I actually ran.  I thought I was going to split after one mile.

My focus is not just on the marathons in 2015, but also in re-fulfilling the vision I had a long time ago of being a runner in my 20s.

I love running. I love the endorphin high and rush you feel mile after mile.

This was a great start for me and I know that this slow build is going to help me run powerfully in May at the Chicago Spring Marathon!

:)

Yay!
