That's right folks. I am so proud of myself. I went out there and ran most of a 1.66 mile loop in my neighborhood. That may not sound like much for some of you but that is the fastest I have ever done that distance. I probably ran for almost a mile of that distance (with walking intervals), which puts me just a little closer to my goal of running for a mile straight. Whit is almost as proud as I am. He had to work it a little to keep up with ME! And you know what else? I feel so good right now. My legs are limber and warm and my breathing is deep and slow. I feel like I could go out there and do it again. I really like this runners high thing.
SWEET!!
or should I say SWEAT!!
My cloths are soaked in sweat and my hair is so wet that you would think that I had just gotten out of the shower. But that's ok because I just burned 427 calories in 33 minutes!!!
Happy Training,
Love Jenn

jOh yeah, runner's high... Hmmm... legal and totally awesome... Congrats Jenn, the first mile is really the hardest. You're doing awesome.

Good job! I remember running my first mile, and I smile when I think back to it. Keep up the great work! I wish I could burn that many calories in 33 minutes!
No you don't because the only reason I burn that many calories in one go is because I weigh so much. As the weight drops so will my cal burn, which is a sucky part of the equation.
I loved my first mile, and can't wait for the next one.
