A New Path


Many of you know that I began running at the beginning of July. I started with only the experience of having ran for one minute consecutively in the past. I never liked it, but necessity to find a sport I can do anywhere, anytime, and with anyone pushed me to look at running again.

I finished week 4 by running with my friend, Julie. Julie is an experienced runner with many years under her belt and I really appreciate her continued support and her hands-on consultation Friday. I learned some good tips!

Today I started my 5th week of running and it's really going better than expected. The daily run schedule for this week inlcudes 2 min of walking amd 8 min of running (times three). So, I ran 24 minutes this morning! I'm really happy. I planned to do my first race in mid-October but I'm thinking that September is possible now.
