SO today we had our one mile test to see how fast we could run. For a girl whom has never ran a day in her life, unless she was chancing down the ice-cream truck, I did not do to bad. My first lap was completed in 3 minutes and Dan told me if I kept up that pace I would finish in 15 minutes so that was the goal. I am happy to report I did finish 4th and walked one extra lap to cool down, to show support for my fellow teammates. Oh I also finished in 15minutes so I hit my goal. Yeah!!!
That run did kick my ASS.. When I was finished it felt like my lungs were on fire and I swear I had the taste of blood in my mouth. I have been informed it will get better, we shall see. I do have a new respect for runners. I dont understand yet why you run vers doing something else. But I will keep doing for the next 14 weeks and see if it becomes something I can enjoy doing.
Oh and wouldn't you know it like every picture I take my eyes are closed. Next time I am going to wear my sunglasses.
