Day 54: 5 mile PR!

Second 5 miler today, which, sadly, I had to run without Chris. But the weather was excellent, and even though dragging myself out of bed at 6 a.m. was almost impossible, it was totally worth it. I finished in 52:24! That's a minute and 16 seconds better than Tuesday! I've been excited about it all day, I couldn't wait to post. My slowest mile was my last, by a lot. So I think if I can work on finishing stronger, I'll be really close to my 10 min/mile time goal. I hope I can run next week's just as well, if not better, although I thought I might pass out when I got done today, so I'm not sure how much faster I can go. But even a couple seconds would be a big accomplishment. Anyway, that's next week, so I'm just going to be excited about today's run right now.

Rest tomorrow, undecided on cross training Saturday... I need to come up with something new and interesting. Then 10 miles Sunday... I REALLY hope it's not too hot...
