Ok don’t laugh..

And I feel really silly for even writing about this.. but I finally ran a full mile without walking! I don’t think I’ve ever done this in my life! You have to understand, I’m a terribly slow runner and have always stopped running at some point within the mile. Okay, granted, I was on a treadmill going at a moderate pace.. but seriously, a month ago, I could barely run half a mile all the way through, even on the treadmill. Hoorah! Now I’m feeling a little bit more optimistic about trying to run a 5K in a couple of months. Hopefully I’ll be able to do it within a decent time. Also I’m glad to see that exercising regularly these past few weeks is actually doing something! Sometimes it’s hard to see if your efforts are useful or not.
