10 from 30

Well on my way to running a 5k. This evening my son & I did our 5/20/5 circuit and did it successfully. Felt good with little difficulty. I was comfortable jogging just under 2 miles in 20 minutes, which puts me at 10 minutes away from running a full 30 minutes to achieve our 3.1 mile run. My legs felt good tonight and I got my breathing rhythm down. Ironically our Bible Study conversation this week centered around staying motivated, which I'm beginning to get stoked as each workout goal is met.

The only thing I didn't enjoy this evening was jogging in the dark. It was well after 7:45pm before we hit the trail and the sun had just set below the horizon. By the time we were done at 8:15pm, it was well after dark. Moving forward, we'll probably do our runs in the afternoon so we can see where we're going and for safety reasons. Making much progress & enjoying the results. Beginning to feel optimistic toward our 5k marathon Nov. 6th.
