5K UPDATE.....

So 5 weeks ago when I first decided to do this 5K I went and ran it to see how long it was going to take me to get through this. I have never been a distance runner because of my asthma. So I knew this was going to be a challenge. But the first time I did it it took me 39 min. and 42 sec. And at the end of that run........I was DYING. I thought "There is NO way I am going to survive this thing!!"
Over the last five weeks I have really focused on making sure I get some type of a workout in 5-6 days a week. I have been mixing it up with running and cardio videos. Since the weather has been warming up, I have been able to do my runs outside. To my surprise, I can run longer and farther outside than I do on my treadmill. Maybe because it's more enjoyable outside!!! ;)
So last night, I decided to see if my efforts have paid off any. I did my warm up and then off I went!! And.......in 37 min. and 14 sec. I had run a 5K!!! YES!! I have decreased my time by almost 2 1/2 minutes!!! Now ask me if i'm motivated???? HECK YA!!! ;) Bring on this 5K!!
