Whew! Glad it was a group run, even though I didn't really see any of the other runners. Just knowing that they're nearby motivates me. Everytime we up the mileage (every 2 weeks), the new number really psyches me out. So it's nice to know that our coach is around, as well as our mentor.
Today was also the 1st time we ran by the zoo- very cool! Plus, I could hear the dinosaurs from the Dinosauria exhibit (going there next week!). :) The area has gorgeous homes & the streets are nice & quiet.
Tomorrow starts our 2 mile Sunday runs (we've been doing 1 mile). No more thinking "Meh, it's just a quick 1 mile run". Although, that in itself is insane that it's coming from me, the non-runner! :) I cannot wait to be like "Pssh- 5 miles? No biggie!". Slowly getting there! And actually, lately, it seems like my legs aren't the ones complaining about the runs- they seem to have caught on quite well. It's my lungs & not being able to catch my breath or take deep breaths. Still very much a work in progress!
Also a work in progress? Fundraising. That seems to be at a standstill. Ugh.
