Success!

Today was the dreaded 20 minute workout! I was worried I'd get another side cramp like on Friday, but once I started running it was fine. I didn't feel like I was going to die. I was kind of bored (didn't bring my iPod today), but once I got to 10 minutes and still felt the same, I knew I could finish it :) I could have kept going LOL But I didn't want to push it. So that was the end of week 5! Next week should be great since I managed to pull this week off. then week 7-9 are just minor increases from 25 to 28 to 30 minute runs. So I should be running 3 miles, or 5 km soon :) Hehe. Mind you I'm going just about as slow as anything, but that can always be improved over time.

This week is kennel duty week! It is a bit annoying with school and other commitments... not that I don't enjoy kennel duty, its just hard when we have to do all the other stuff. At least we don't have a dog to walk in the -30 degree weather we're having. LOL I better not speak too soon...

Other exciting news, I got groceries! I lasted 3 weeks, and finally got some (part) of my student loan money on friday. It was a good feeling getting some food. Even though I probably could have lasted another week. I'm gonna see how long I can last this time :)

No pictures today, too busy!

Nice work on the long run Steph. The side stitch thing usually goes away with experience/more running. Were you drinking more water thann usual? Keep up the good work!
