Week 4 is here and I'm pushing through it....

I have to admit I was nervous going into Day 1, Week 4.  I started this program 4 weeks ago and I averaged 15 minute mile.  Today my mile time was 12:27 and I burned 334 calories!  I felt fantastic as I was running.  I still feel really good right now too.  I am getting anxious as the real 5k is only one month away.  It is hard to believe that I feel this good and excited about doing this.

Week 4 jumps you up quite a bit, I ran for a total of 16 minutes today.  16 minutes!!!  It has been a long time for me to run that much time.  Of course in 2 more week I will be running 20 minutes with no walking breaks.  I am really looking forward to that.  I am however, getting a bit nervous about running outside.  I need to take a Saturday and go see the course and run a bit outside.

I just wish the scale would start going down.  I weight the same today as I did 3 weeks ago!

I am looking forward to when my students do the mile run this year, this is going to be the first year I go down with them and run.  I want to run with my kids!!!!
