Day One of a 5k Train...wow. I'm out of shape.

Today I started Day One of the training process for a 5K I'm training for with my friend Lindsay (and my friend Courtney is helping me along too!). Day One showed that I am wayyyy out of shape. It hurt to run, yet I feel so much better! Funny how that happens. I dont know how exactly my ankle will hold up during all this, but I figure I cant get better if I dont push myself!

Today started with the attempt to do a 4 mile circuit. It did NOT happen. I think I ran about half a mile before my ankle decided that it did not want to participate in this training session anymore, so we walked the rest of the way. By the time the second circuit came around, we decided to shorten it to 3 miles instead of 4, and let me tell you, I've never been more excited to sit on a floor in my life. It's going to be tough, but I feel like what will come of it will all be worth it!

More updates to come...now it's time to reward myself with a Memorial Day cookout with friends and an ice cold Corona with lime!
