One down, two to go!

Yesterday once Josh got home from work we prepared for a run. It had been almost a week since I had run last so I was slightly anxious. With Josh pushing the jogging stroller we headed out for our plotted out 1.2 mile course. I started out strong and by the time I came upon my usual stop and walk point I still had energy, so I kept on running. I was getting a little mentally side tracked so I put in my head phones and turned on the ipod. I got mildly annoyed once I realized that my ipod was set to switch songs every time it was shaken. Therefore my song was changing every 3 sec as I was running, boo! I stopped long enough to trade my phone for the old school ipod that I knew would not switch songs on me. After the switch I kept on running and running and running. I felt so great once I reached the end of the 1.2 miles, I had run the entire thing. This is a great accomplishment for me, I haven't run a mile since P.E. class in the 8th grade. I was very proud and Josh was proud of me too. Now I have two more miles to go before my 1st race April 9, 2011. CASA Superhero race here I come.....

Great job, Jadie! I did the Couch to 5K program last year and had such a great feeling of accomplishment. If you aren't doing a formal program, I highly recommend it. You go, girl!
