Good weekend

This was a good weekend.

Friday night I got to hang out with Brock as he got off of work early and decided not to do school work that night (yay!!!), so I didn't get a workout in that night. It's ok though cause I ROCKED it Saturday!

Saturday afternoon we weren't doing much (Brock was doing homework) so I was just hanging out watching TV by myself. I knew we were going out that night for his sister-in-law's birthday and that we were eating at a steak house, so I decided to be good and hit the gym. The Nebraska game was still on and I was really hoping the Y would have it on. Sure enough they did.
I started off running right out of the gate. I don't know if it was that I took Friday off or that I just had more energy because of working out in the afternoon rather than the late evening, but it felt good. I only had about 45 minutes for time though, so I figured if I could maybe get 2 miles of running in I'd be good. I figured I'd do my run 1, walk a bit and run the next. But I got going and the going was good, and I kept on it. A mile passed and I was just fine, so I figured I'd keep going for 1.5. That came and I thought go for 2 or more - and I did!

I GOT TO 2.5 MILES STRAIGHT!!! At the very slow running pace that I go - that was 30 minutes of constant running!!! I totally remember when I could barely go for 5 minutes before feeling like my legs were out of energy - and now I just went for 1/2 an hour!!!

I didn't get in on Sunday but I am planning on going tonight - we'll see what I can do then!
