Progress

I've been running for about 3 weeks now, since I've been back home. Running has always been cyclical for me - I'll start, do it for a couple weeks, then stop. I'm hoping I'll stick with it this time - I've taken to doing it first thing in my day, which makes it much easier to avoid the random excuses that have popped up in my head when I've failed before.

I've got a 3-mile circuit through the parks in town, and today was a milestone - the first time I ran the whole circuit straight through. Three miles isn't exciting for seasoned runners, but for somebody who couldn't run a mile in high school, this is pretty sweet. I'm thinking of doing a 5K in the fall, so it's also nice to know that I can make it through the distance!
