Milestone Moment

January 24th, 2010 | Comments | Posted in 1/2 marathon, Exercise, Lisa, Running |

I posted this over at my personal blog Growing Up Mo’ but I know there’s a bunch of you that may not visit me over there you really should, I am so totally awesome-NOT!

I started running as a form of exercise in early October.

I ran my first 5K on November 7th, 2009.

I ran my first five miler on Thanksgiving Day.

I signed up to run the San Diego Rock N Roll 1/2 Marathon in June 2010, with Team Shrinking Jeans (part of Leukemia and Lymphoma Society’s Team in Training).  I am running for her, them, me, and you.

My normal pace is 12 minute miles, slowly inching my way closer to 11 minute miles on some days.

Today, I blew it out of the water and ran 3.02 miles in 29 minutes 30 seconds.

That would be an average pace of 9 minutes 46 seconds.

Happy dance, happy dance, happy dance.

Will I be able to do a repeat performance?

I think so.
