yayyy i can runnn

after my traumatizing run on tues, i decided i needed to find out if i was even capable of running 3 miles... i was all ready to go during lunch today but then ryan started crying cause he wanted pho. so we all got pho. by the time we got back and got settled into the daily grind, i was really not feeling motivated to run after work. towards the end of the day i read this blog and was like, stop being a bitch, bitch. changed, and gymed it. pressed that little 5k button and set the pace at 9:40/mi. first mile spent adjusting my crouch, second mile started getting cramps, third mile i was feeling pretty good and upped the ante the last half mile. finished in 29:30 with a hyena-like scream (not really), yayyyyy. then i told ryan, showered, ate pasta salad, blogged. i'm excited to try to go faster now that i have some sort of benchmark!
