Sorry guys its been a busy last few days here for me! I've been working at this place called the Pure Joy Bakery/Lunchpail doing Farmer's Market and working the lunch shift in the store bringing the sandwiches out to the customer's so when I get home I haven't been taking the time to fill you in on my running progress. This week has been going very good! On Sunday I went running with one of my friends, he used to be in really good shape but he died on me that night haha. We ended up only doing 1.7 miles but we were keeping a really good pace of 7:30, I was hoping to get in 3-4 miles but I was fine with stopping when he needed to. Then Monday through Thursday I have been doing 3-4 miles each time, slowly building my ability to keep higher mileage consecutive days in a row. I've decided I actually really enjoy running at night time after dinner has been finished. It is so peaceful out at night, sometimes a little sketchy but luckily my town/neighborhood is a pretty safe area so I don't feel uncomfortable running around at 9 at night. Last night I went out at 9:15 and ran around 10, at first I wasn't sure how far I was going to be able to go but I ended up getting in a solid 4 miles and feeling pretty good most of the time. While I was out running I got a little freak out when I ran past a skate boarder, he looked a little strange but he was harmless and went on his own way. It's just a little more scary coming across some people at night rather than during the day, especially since I'm not running with my cell phone or anything to protect me but my own pure speed...which wouldn't help me much if someone were to grab me. I am really looking forward to being up in Chico next weekend and being able to run up there for a few days! I'm going to try and make Saturday a 6 mile run so wish me luck and I'll be updating you after I finish it! :)
