30 Day Challenge: Complete

So, I did it. Sort of. I skipped a few days... but whatcha gonna do? Life happens. However, I definitely got into a routine of working out 5-6 days/week instead of 3-4... so that's something. And, I ended with a bang... two 5K runs this weekend! Did I stop and walk a bit occasionally between the Ks? Yep. Am I OK with that? You bet.

On to a new goal: increase my weekly mileage by at least 1 mile/week for the next 12 weeks. So, I'm at 7 or so now, so by the end of this, I should be running 19-20. Then I'll be ready to dive in to the 1/2 marathon training schedule.

Good thing Daylight Savings is here! (I've been counting the days...) I can run outside after work now! Woo hoo!

(I used to run outside after work in the dark... until one night I tripped and broke my finger, of all things. I had Tucker with me, and it was on a sort-of busy road, and thank God he didn't freak and run into traffic. Anyway, that incident scared me into only running in the daylight, which I'm sure is a much better idea.)
