C25K

I have faithfully been participating in the training program Couch to 5k.  I have kept this on the d-low, seeing as how I am the slowest most horrible runner ever! And I am not even exaggerating! Ha!  Well maybe a little now that I have improved.  Nonetheless I have made it to week 6 and am pressing on, still slow but I can do it.  I push myself and during the run I just want to die, but then afterwards what a great feeling.

I can run for 20 minutes straight now.  Yes, while some of you may laugh (marathoners specifically, Ha) this is progress for me and something to be proud of.  When I began 7 weeks ago (I repeated a week, 5 I think) I could hardly run a minute without breathing so hard I thought I was going to need pulmonary resuscitation.  So yes, 20 minutes is a big deal and it is about 1.5 miles!  And with that being said I have only done that twice.

 I am excited to  continue on this venture, I thought I would be satisfied with a 5K but I am now considering bridging to 10K.  Then may be I will go even further.  God has blessed me with the strength to get this far, and I can do all things through Him who strengthens me right! And this paired with SBD= gut poof! Ha, or so I am praying.
