The feeling of accomplishment....almost tasting it....

Today I entered the gym with a spring in my step.  I was ready for this.  To date this was the going to be my longest continuous run during my couch to 5k journey.  I had my ipod ready, my head phones on, my knee "pre
bengayed" and my water bottle in my hand.

I was able to find the zone today......and I was very pleased with the results.  I managed to run 2.5 miles in 26:10 minutes!!!  When you add in my five minute warm up and my five minute cool down I did 3.10 (that's a 5k) in 36:06 minutes!  That means in two weeks I will be able to meet my goal of a 30 minute 5k! That was a 11:37 mile pace.....

I seriously feel amazing and I can't wait to keep running.  Those are words I never thought I would in my entire say.......
