Today's forecast was just LOVELY and the mornings have been so beautiful, that I set my alarm for 6:30 AM and went out running at 6:45.
I went across the street to the high school track. It was early and no one was there, so I felt fine going on the track. I wanted to have a clear picture of how far I was going.
When I started running, I got this strange feeling in the pit of my stomach. I was being psyched out by the track. The few times I've been running on the track, it was high school gym class and I couldn't make it around even once. I'd be gasping for air. I was very worried.
Then I ran around once....twice......three....and then I made it to one mile. A whole mile, without stopping once!
This segment of the Couch to 5K was 20 minutes. So I kept running. I made it all the way to 7 full laps around the track. 1 3/4 miles!!
YAY!
