It's been a slow start for me in 2018. I didn't sign up for any races until May, and I am hoping to be prepared for this one and to actually post a decent time for the first time in a long time. For those of you who didn't know, I had a small procedure done a few weeks ago and today was the first day I really felt up to running. Of course the NJ weather gods doomed me and it's cold and rainy out so it was down to the dreadmill for me.
I didn't have high hopes for distance at all so I was aiming for 1 mile of straight running and I did that no problem. But speed is absolutely an issue for me. Usually I can do an easy mile between 9:30-10:00 and today it was 11:51. 😩 SOOOO slow!!! Hopefully I can speed that up my race day on May 5th. And crazy me also signed up for a second race 2 weeks later 😨 so I should do better this year than I have been. As much as I hate running, I hate the way that I feel & look right now even more and running is the fastest way to help with that. Wish me luck!!
