8-31

Today we did our first distance run!!  We went on a mile and a half run that went through the Corner which took me 00:15:50.  I've never really timed my runs previously, but I feel like that was probably consistent with what I have done in the past.

Made a friend who said that she has signed up to do a half marathon in November!!  That's a lot!!  She is at the same level as I am, and I kind of want to join her, but I have reservations about doing such a big race when I probably haven't run more than 5k in one go before...  

I really like running on a course as opposed to on a track or a treadmill.  It's so much more fun!  Lotsa obstacles to navigate...

First day of Running for Fitness!!  Huzzah!! 

I ran 2 loops around the field with the group.  On the timed lap I ran 00:03:39.  I definitely had my heart rate up and was feeling it on the hill.  However, I didn't let myself slow down once I set my pace.



I definitely have room to improve.  Hoping that this class works out with my Linguistics class right after it... ^_^
