How I'm Doing

I Ran, I Conquered!!

O.M.G!!! I just ran 1.875 miles straight in 25 minutes. And now I look just like this picture. I used Amy's visualization technique; visualized myself doing the five minute cool down walk at the end. After running for six minutes I almost gave up. It was hard. I knew if I just kept going to the halfway point, I might make it. Fast forward to six minutes left...what is it with the number six?? Anyway, six minutes left and I thought I was going to die. Truly die. I think this was the hardest thing I have ever done. YEAH YEAH YEAH!!


p.s. Not sure I can do it again. ;-) No...seriously.

    Whooohoooo!!! I can't even imagine how great that feels! I use the halfway point thing a lot. I picture that half way point and say if I get there then I can stop if I want. By the time I get there I think that Heck I am almost there why would I stop? It works great for me!

    Before you know it you will be telling us a new personal best and next time it will be for 5k :)

    Isnt it a great feeling?? I am pretty much at the same point myself in the C25K, and once you get the first 8-10 minutes down, it's not that bad.
