Holy cow!!

I am so excited!!! I just ran 6 freaking miles( maybe a bit over). I had a long day today, son had his tonsils out and I was just tired from all that. I did some p90x about 4 and then the plan was just to do the bare miles on my training run. 3 miles, that was all. For some odd reason I was in a cool place and just kept going . I made to 3 miles out and the turned around to come the 3 miles back. I am home now and thinking that I need to look up some good stretches or else I am gonna be a bit sore in the am.  I am making so many firsts , so fast. I guess  I am ready for this 4.3 mile run on the 24th . I see a 10k in my future soon. My knee did start to get a bit twitchy on me.

Congrats on the 6 miles!!  Really cool feeling, isn't it!
Where in WA are you? I am planning a 10K in June, and it should be a beautiful route!

It doesn't matter whether you're a lion or a gazelle
when the sun comes up you'd better be running.

I am down here in Yelm, WA . I think we are fairly close but I am a homebody so never really been past Tacoma much one way or Olympia the other.

Not too terribly far. I'm on the other side of the Narrows. There's a 5K coming up in Tacoma, May 8th, the Run Like A Girl 5K (Mother's Day weekend). Proceeds go to DV prevention and awareness for Pierce Cty.  Here's the website if you are interested:

I need to do a 5K in May, just to keep focused on my  10K in June, so considering this one!
