3.1 in Under 31:00!!!

Not a ton of time today, but I just had to share:  I completed my 5k route in under 31 minutes for the first time EVER!!!!  30:44 to be exact!  (I know the picture of my GPS app below says 30:51, but it took me a few seconds to recover enough to hit the stop button!)  All smiles here today :oD 

 

There really is something to setting small goals for yourself along the way as you go.  It feels so good to achieve them!  And all of a sudden, when you look back on all the little goals you've reached, you realize how far you've truly come.  This was pretty obvious to me tonight when I thought back on the first few weeks or month of my running adventure, when I was running 2 miles in 28:30.  And now, after a bunch of little goals tackled along the way.....I just ran 3.1 miles in 30:44.  That's crazy!  A whole mile more, and only 2 and a half minutes more??!?!?  That's what I'm talking about!  :oD  Who ever thought I'd be where I am today?  Because I certainly didn't!  Haha!  Have a good night - and keep on going strong - it's all worth it on days like today!
