Woke up bright and early this morning to get out and run before it got hot and humid. Jumped out on the road and ran to the corner of Evans and Main Street which is only .65 miles from the house but I ran through a couple parking lots rather than just the road so it was about .73 miles to the corner. I might have been able to go farther but didn't want to push it too much.
The first .25 went smoothly. I wasn't panting yet and I was keeping a pretty slow pace. The next .25 was a little harder and by the last part I was pushing myself to keep going. I did the .73 in 8 minutes and change. I was slightly proud of that and think maybe if I slowed it down a little I could get farther. I walked the same path home to cool down and well I had to get back home before the baby got up.
Still feeling good - I'm thinking of running tomorrow too. My goal is to hit a mile by Sunday.
Day 2 Stats
1.46 miles (.73 running .73 walking)
21 minutes (8:35 running 12 walking)

Day 1 - .75 mile
I decided to start a running diary. More for myself than you all but hey if you are interested you are more than welcome to read (obviously I'm posting it on my blog).
I was so excited to start that I came straight home, changed out of my work clothes and loaded David up in the stroller. As I was walking out of the garage it started to drizzle but at that point there was no turning back. I made it to just past the Elementary School before I started walking. My guess is .30 miles. I walked out to the pond and showed David the water and gazebo before turning around. I continued walking past the Elementary School and ran probably another .20 miles home.
I was exhausted when I got home but felt good. Nothing hurt (except my lungs) so I will go back out in the morning when it isn't 90 degrees with 70% humidity.
