So I did my second 5K on post this past weekend, the Bunny Hop 5K. I shaved 2 minutes off of my time and my pace was good enough for the half next year even though I walked most of it. It gives me hope that even if I can't run the entire half, I can still finish because I know the walk to run ratio that works out to the right pace now. I am planning on being able to run most of it of course but I am still a long way from that.
The new program is working out great. It's tough but I am doing it and I am feeling stronger. Last night was a tough run but I made it through. this morning was the first time I have woken up sore but I feel good now and I am looking forward to tomorrow night's run.
I can't believe that I am running. I can't believe that my calendar for the next year is quickly filling with races that I want to do, most of which are half marathons. Disney is announcing a new race today and I am actually getting up early just to see what it is and find out when I can register if the rumors are true. I really hope things continue to go as well as they have the last 2 weeks because if they do, my dream may actually become a reality.
