WoO HoO!! I did it...I started! I just did a 2 mile interval run/walk. I ran for 2 minutes and walked for 1. I finished my first mile in 14 minutes. I was kind of surprised and a little disappointed. I thought I was at least at a 13 minute mile. But hey, its Day 1 right? I felt pretty good the whole way, except for the last 10 minutes. I started to feel some pain in my right shin and my right glute. I came home and immediately stretched.
The new shoes and socks were amazing!! Thank you Track Shack and those who suggested I go to a specialty running store.
Thank you God for the ability to walk and run. Thank you for giving me the motivation to start this difficult journey. And thank you for all of the amazing people in my life that have been so supportive already. When I hit the road its just you and me :0)
Awesome! And 14 minutes run/walk is NOT bad, especially for your first day! Heck, there have been RUNS where I barely break a 13 minute mile. So happy to be doing this with you!!!
