Run a 5K straight: Check

FINALLY. After a year of training myself to not only run, but run in elevation after living at 500 ft above sea level for 22 years, I RAN AN ENTIRE 5K WITHOUT STOPPING. Granted, it was on a treadmille and it was at a very slow pace, but DAMNIT I DID IT. I ran into a friend at the gym yesterday who is doing Race for the Cure tomorrow, and she ran 3.2 miles on the treadmill to "whip herself back into shape." That was it. I knew I was capable of running 3.1 miles so I set out to do it.

Walk 1 minute (0.05 miles) at 3mph
Jog 41:40 minutes (3.1 miles) at 4.5 mph
Walk 7:20 minutes (0.37 miles) at 3mph

Now it's time to shower, make dinner, and relax for a bit before hitting the books again. Ugh.
