I Found My Pace!

Tonight I found my running pace. I ran for 28 minutes straight without a break, covering 2.5 miles. (This is a huge improvement over my previous best.) The amazing thing was that I enjoyed it, I didn't feel tired, and I wanted to keep going!

I don't know why it worked so well tonight. Maybe it was the perfect blend of working off pent-up energy, the weather, sleep and eating, or just that I finally figured out how to run slowly. Whatever it was, it was fun. I hope it lasts until next run!

I totally admire your dedication and hard work, and I could never do what you do. You are one of the most motivated people I know... congrats on doing so well and enjoying it! (By the way, I think that achieving this goal means you are a very NOT lazy person...)
