Getting there...

Tonight I ran a little over 2 miles WITHOUT stopping! I realize this is minor to many, but in my non-running- self- world (if that makes sense) it's big. I started in January being able to run for 2 minutes without stopping and tonight I ran for 24 minutes (that is at a 12 min mile pace). I thought it would be easier to get here honestly, so I'm still disappointed, but I think I had unrealistic expectations. I planned to be running my little 5K in like a month. Four months later and I STILL can not run 3.2 miles without stopping. It's coming soon... stay tuned. OH and I need to go to a junk food detox camp for like a month. I am learning that I am an all or nothing kind of eater. Meaning: I can not even have 1 little piece of chocolate, b/c then I just want more. I think if I could go truly a month without any junk, I might be able to kick the habit. Who knew I had such an addictive personality, good thing my addiction is just food... life could have been a lot harder...
