YAY!! Today I went to the park and jogged a full 5k! No I didn't break any speed records like I did the last time I went, but I did complete the task at hand. Which considering it has been almost a month since I have attempted it, is pretty spectacular in and of itself. A guy I went out with a few weeks ago told me that I should always strive to make my jogging experiences good ones. When it starts to really hurt or I stop being able to breathe and such, I am burning muscle not fat and makig myself miserable. Both are defeating the purpose of the activity. So, on his advice I decided not to torture myself about times or distance, but to just go as far as I could at a pace that allowed me to take full, non-weezing breaths. And, it WORKED! Not only did I accomplish the distance I was hoping for, I actually felt good afterwards instead of like I was going to die.
1st mile - 12:06 min
2nd mile - 25:19 min
3rd mile - 39:15 min
.1 mile - 40:33 min
