I Am Getting Faster...

My speed is increasing, I can't wait to try a 5K. I also can't wait to run outside. The track at the YMCA is boring and people get into my way. 95 laps=5 miles and I did it in 38 minutes the other day. Considering the variables of people and turning and whatnot that is pretty exciting.

This morning I ran with one of the X Country stars from my high school. I cramped up after 57 laps (3 miles) and I am sure it was because I was running too hard (he is a machine) and perhaps on an empty stomach or something. We did those 3 (pacing for 5 though) on that track in 21:30 or so. That means I might be able to run a fast 5K at some point soon health permitting. A far cry from my 11 minute miles of 8 months ago!

Remember- plenty of water, no excuses- cardio every day. Every single day. No 30 minute deals either!
