This morning I again timed myself on a 5K run and did it in 24:39. I was hauling butt and that sucked big time. I've cut 5 minutes off my time in the last month. I've also lost 21 pounds since Jan 7th. I feel great!

i ran a 26:15 (approx) w/ steelblue on monday night. that dude can glide quickly and is way too fast for me. however, he has graciously ran with me a few times over the last few weeks and i have completed faster times (including my first sub 8 min mile) than i ever thought i would.

I was on the streets again Tuesday. Did my first seven miler with a new running buddy. Tomorrow we go further, perhaps eight or nine.

Did you lose much speed?

Yeah. We're only averaging about 7:45s, and 7:30s were okay, but when I tried to go sub sevens, it didn't feel good [so I didn't]. It is good that the running bud, is a cute gal, so that makes the suffering worth it.

I still want to break 1:30 some day, but perhaps my wish is in vain, as that 7:00 mark seems to cause me to break down injurywise. I know I'm a wimp but at least I try.

Best 5K time this morning. 23:20 is my new record. Also, I'm down to 176, 1 pound from my goal, and 27 pounds total lost since Jan 7th.
