Personal best
I ran for ten minutes on the treadmill today. TEN WHOLE MINUTES! I was so happy, I nearly cried and it may not sound like a big deal, but the last time I tried this running thing, I couldn't even run for two minutes.
Heck, last week, I could barely run for four!
Tim and I have started the Body for Life program and I think the weight lifting, high protein diet and vitamin supplements have started to pay off. (It's the only explanation I have for the sudden burst in endurance: stronger bones and more muscle mass.)
I know I've still got a long way to go before I can finally run that 5K I've been dreaming of, but I'll take this ten minutes and be darn-tootin' proud of it! :D
