W8R2 tougher than I thought

Post by Prkwy »

Completed 2nd run of week8 and I found it tougher than I had before. Not sure why, but I really had to slow my pace down, almost to a quick walk. I made up for it by running a faster than normal pace the last 3 minutes. I guess I had one of thee running days when it isn't the best. But hey, we can say we had a tough running day because we are now runners! Enjoy your run!

The point is, you did it...again! Now you will keep doing it again. That extra 2 min. next week will be be nothing and you get even better. Good luck and have fun.

Your so right Mahnster! It is a wonderful sense of accomplishment to do that. It is a great thing for those of us who have started this program to look back on the short period of time we have been doing it and see where we have come from. Such a simple program has touched so many lives!
