I LOVE this girl!
Leslie has been my "running" buddy this last week and she is the BEST motivator!!!! When I'm whining how much my legs hurt and how much I want to walk she tells me to "suck it up, buttercup! Keep going!"
So we set out today for our ONE MILER. My goal was to be under 13:00 minutes (last Friday I ran one mile in 13:30) I was SUPER excited to use my GARMIN for the first time! I LOVE IT!
We started strong but I have KILLER shin-splints right now!!! So I was hurtin' the first 1/2 mile but once I loosened up I felt myself get into a stride! Our last little bit Leslie told me to sprint so....I sprinted! I ended up finishing the mile in...........12:49!!!!!!! Woohoo!!!!! I almost shaved a WHOLE minute off! What a great feeling to set a goal and accomplish it!! Tomorrow I'm meeting Leslie at the track for a 2 miler!
Total February Miles: 3.5
Total 2012 Miles: 8
P.S. I wanted to thank everyone for the AMAZING comments! Your positive words keep ME motivated! Love you all!!!
