Week 3 Day 1

Oooouuuuuuuch.

Just finished Day 1 of Week 3 and my legs HURT! For the first time in my entire life, I just ran 3 minutes without walking in between. (9 minutes of running total.) Again, 3 minutes may not seem like much, but to me, it felt like a marathon. I'm so lucky to have Becky out there running with me, high-fiving me every time we cross each other's paths around the baseball field. This has been an awesome experience so far - we're only in the 3rd week, and I've already pushed my body past further than I thought it could go.

I can't wait to be one of those people who say, "Oh, I just went out and ran a few miles." Even though my calves are throbbing and my ankles are aching, it feels so good knowing that I just did something that I would not have been able to do just 2 weeks ago.
