My New Running Record

I'm pretty sure I've mentioned before that I have been running. I've been training myself to run a 5k (which is in just under 4 weeks) Until today, but best running distance was 3.36 miles. Which I have been extremely proud of. Sometimes it still doesn't register that I am capable of that. I've been dragging today. Recuperating from a good, but tiresome weekend. I didn't get up at my normal 6am to go running, but I knew I still wanted to run. I could have done something else, but I want to make it a point to run every day in order to keep myself prepared for my race. So after talking to Scott, we decided it would be ok for me to go out when he got home from work. The last 15 minutes before Scott got home I was psyching myself up to push myself. I wanted to beat my best distance. I didn't even care what my time was. Well, all that to say, I DID beat it, and not just by a tenth of a mile, or two tenths of a mile. I ran four straight miles today! FOUR!!! I have no idea if, or when I'll be able to do it again, but man! I am super proud of myself!!!
