What a Run

March 7, 2010

Wow. What a run! I just ran my fastest 3 miles ever in 24:55!!!  :mrgreen: At times, it was painful, but it felt SO great to beat my PR!

It was such a beautiful morning, Mal and I decided to go for a run together. We started out at 9-minute mile pace, but after a few minutes, we decided to pick it up. Mal wore my Garmin, so he kept track of our pace and pushed us to run faster for the entire 3 miles. It was tough, but my husband kept me motivated. With a 1/2 mile to go, I gritted my teeth and went all out to keep up with him. I could barely feel my legs as we sprinted down our street, but somehow, I did it!

Once I finished, I was exhausted, but so psyched! :-D

Check out these splits! I don’t think I’ve ever run this fast!

Breakfast

Before Mal and I went out for our run, I ate some breakfast. I had a toasted Sandwich Thin with an egg and buffalo sauce.

On the side, I had a juicy, pink grapefruit.

And, as always, iced coffee with vanilla hemp milk.

My To Do list for today is a mile long! I guess I had too much fun playing yesterday. :-?

See ya! 8-)
