See ya week 5!

Today I finished Week 5 and I'm pumped! Week 5 has been totally crazy because it has not been the same thing each day, in fact, it's been different things every day. This has been kind of nice because it's not the same old thing.

Today I had to run for a full 20 minutes. Going into this I knew I couldn't do it but was going to try to do a full mile before stopping to walk. And I did it! I ran a full mile without stopping! This is the first time I have done that since high school when we had to run the mile twice a year. I actually ran for 12 minutes straight and then walked for 1 minute and then ran the rest of the time. I was happy with what I did and can't wait to do it again.

The only thing that has hindered me is my damn foot. I fell down the stairs carrying a science kit at school in October and apparently haven't fully recovered. The five-minute cool down went very slow and hurt a lot. In fact, when I got back to school I couldn't walk without limping. So hopefully some ice will get me ready for my next run on Sunday.
