run run run run

I just went for a 4 mile run on the treadmill!! It's crazy to think about how far my body has transformed in 1 year! Last year at this I was still feeling really good after a 1 mile run! i would push so hard to do 1 mile in under 10 min.

Today I did 4 mils in about 38 min and I feel good. I don't feel particularly winded or like I will be in a lot of pain tomorrow, so I am just really proud of my ability to push my body to knew and different territory.

I am trying to decide if I should do a half marathon in may. Technically I am on track with the training program that I could potentially do it. But I seem to have a commitment problem. It is hard to commit running every day or at least 3 days a week and cross training 5 days a week.

I should do it because really working towards a running goal will help me spur my weight loss and maybe help me get faster??

I am going to have to keep thinking about it. But in the mean time, I am definitely going to keep training as if I am going to run it. For the rest of the week that means spin tomorrow, 4+ miles thursday, 40 min cross of 5K on Friday, and 6 miles on Saturday.
