Today I decided to try to run the track instead of on the treadmill. I really didn't think I would be able to make 4 miles on the track. The couple times I have tried I didn't do so well. But I just kept thinking.... If I want to run some races this summer I have to be able to run on a track or outside. So, I tried it!
...And SUCCEEDED!
On the last lap (10 laps per mile) it hit me....I run 4 MiLEs straight!!! What?!?! I hate running! I am not a runner. But here I am running 4 miles! Now, I know to some of you that is not much but to me I never thought that I would EvER run that much and that I would actually like it! So, when this hit me I decided to sprint the last lap! And then.... I was done! WHEW! 10k here I come!
4 miles
58 mins
average-14:30 per mile
PS Anybody have a good suggestions for running shoes? I need some different shoes for pavement!I wear UnderArmors and LOVE them but they are aerobic shoes. So I need a good running shoe. Tell me what you like or don't like!

Hey guess what... you ARE a runner! Great job on the track! I can't run on a treadmill- I get too bored. I think you'll love running outside when it gets a bit warmer. I'm so excited about your success and your half marathon! And I hope you find some great shoes. I love my Mizuno Wave Alchemy shoes. But I know there are a lot of good ones out there!
