"You have to wonder at times what you're doing out there. Over the years, I've given myself a thousand reasons to keep running, but it always comes back to where it started. It comes down to self-satisfaction and a sense of achievement." -Steve Prefontaine

Mai Hana: Week 5 Day 2

I'M OFFICIALLY HALF WAY THROUGH WITH COUCH TO 5K!!!!!!!

Holy cow. These past 5 (6 if you count the pre-C25K) weeks have been AMAZING! I cannot believe I got this far!

Today's run was tough. W5D2 consits of two 8 minuet jogs with a 5 minuet walk sandwhiched in between. I made through the first jog with no problem. The second one was tough. I told myself that if I run 3 minuets, I can walk for one. 3 minuets into my 8, I told myself I can do one more minuet. At the 4 minuet mark, I told myself that I can walk when I hit the 5 minuet mark. So on and so forth. By the time I realized it, I was doing my cool down walk! I did both runs without slowing down or stopping! I'm so proud of myself right now! Tomorrow is my first no interval run! I'm excited and nervous all at the same time! Haha
