So, I finally overcame my 3-mile slump...the slump being that I couldn't get to the 3 mile mark without stopping. But, despite my legs' desperate attempts to stop me...I made it! Not the best time (avg. 10 min. mile which sucks but it's better than walking!) That brings me to 9 miles and it's already Friday. But, that's okay, 3 today and 3 Sunday = 15 for the week! I might even try to do 4 Sunday and see how it goes...look at me pushing myself!
I am tired though and I know I probably shouldn't go today, I'm still in beginning stages and don't want to hurt myself but I know how to listen to my body. I'm not really in the blogging mood today, I need to get my butt working so I must sign off. Until later...
About Me
- April
- I am a 20-something event coordinator, wife, mother, daughter, and sister. I love my life but need a little focus, specifically in the area of exercise. I grew up playing sports and being active and lately have just stopped. It's time for a new goal and what bigger goal than completing my first marathon?!
Days Until My Marathon!

Hi April. Congrats on getting through 3 miles without walking your pace is just fine and soon running three miles will be very manageable.
Ease into your mileage buildup and give yourself plenty of recovery time.
Let Amy and me know how we can support you with your running and the road to your marathon.
