WOW! So today I ran my 5k at the godawful early (for a college student on a weekend) hour of 8 a.m.. I managed to run the whole thing and stayed relatively near the front of the group. I even passed a few people.
When I finished I went to get water and stretch, and then I went back to ask my time--I was shooting for approx. 35 minutes--and they told me I finished in 24:18!!!
I've never run anything so fast in my entire life! In high school, when I was a varsity athlete, I might have been able to run a 5k in 29-30 minutes...24 is a bit unbelievable to me. I've been running a lot for the past month and I never time myself, so I knew I really had no idea how long this run would take me, but I didn't expect to finish in under 30 minutes, let alone under 25.
I might actually be, regardless of weight, in the best shape of my life. Anyways, ladies, I'm very excited, and wanted to share with all of you!!
I hope you're all having a nice Sunday!!
