Better than ever!

The coolest part about training for the first time is that nearly every week I get to say that I ran/will run farther than I've EVER run before! And it's dramatic and true!

And yes, today I ran farther than I've ever run before! Yes, ladies and gentlemen, I ran SEVEN MILES today! Now I know this is considered a warm up for some people... but I'm not one of those people.

This time last year I was running in 30 second intervals. Today I ran over a quarter marathon! I may not have done with grace or style, and I did not do it quickly or without stopping or wondering if my hip bones were going to fall off my pelvis in protest, but I DID IT!
