5.25 Miles

I almost didn't go out this morning. We've been sleeping with all the windows open lately and this morning at about 3:00 the wind really picked up. Slamming doors, banging the blinds against the windows. I had a hard time falling back to sleep. So, when my alarm went off at 5:30 I could still hear the wind whipping outside. I laid there for the longest time... then I remembered how much I pigged out yesterday and how badly I need to keep with my schedule... so I got up. I turned out the wind wasn't too bad. I ran my new route. I walked quite a bit, just wanting to get in 4 miles. I didn't check how fast I was going until I got to the top of the big hill... I was averaging a 12:25 min mile. Boo! So I decided I was going to run the last mile... then I decided to run a little further to the church... the just to the equestrian park... then back to the church... then I walked to the hill up to my house, and I ran up it as fast as I could go. I got home and was at 11:53 min mile. YEA!! I went inside and John was still in the shower, so I left and did a figure eight around the neighborhood. When I finished that I was at 11:43 min mile.  BIG YEA!! I just need to keep that up! I just might beat my time in this next race. Just got to stick to the schedule no matter what!
