Today was the day to add another 1/4 mile to my run. After Sat.'s run I knew that I could do the distance and that I should also work on speeding up my T.M. runs a bit. So, today I did my usual 1/2 mile walk then I alternated speeds : 1/4 mile at 5mph, 1/4 mile at 6mph, 1/4 mile 5mph, etc. until I was done. I really feel like I pushed myself but I love to see my improvement. Also, I forgot to mention on Sat. that I got my 1st blister since I've started running. Although I probably shouldn't be excited about it, it is a good reminder of my persistence and hard work.
