2 miles in 30 minutes

Whew, another mini accomplishment that's keeping me motivated. I was able to complete 2.1 miles in 30 minutes. I was previously doing 1.8 miles in 30 minutes and push myself a little harder today so I could make that 15 minutes a mile mark.

It wasn't easy. There's still snow on the ground and I ran through some of it. Not too deep. My lungs felt the burn by the fifth run/walk sequence. I appreciate the "Do you want me to leave or do you want me to fight now?" song around this time. I keep telling myself, I want to fight, I want to fight.

I'd like to eventually get to a 12 minute mile but right now I'm very happy with my 15 minute mile after one week of training.

  1. I don't suppose you know who sung that song, do you? I can't find it anywhere and it's driving me potty.
