Holy crap.  3.5 miles may not seem like a lot to all you avid runners out there, but to this novice runner, it’s a real accomplishment.

That is officially the longest distance I’ve done off the treadmill!  I hope I didn’t set myself up for soreness on Saturdays’ race.

I feel great right now though; I usually feel like crap right after a run.

Pretending to faint…

And can I just say how happy I am that after 26 years on this planet I’ve finally figured out that at least part of the big secret to healthy skin is a balanced diet!!!  That’s the power of fruits and vegetables people!

Time to rinse off this well-earned sweat and go pick up my race number and shirt for the big day!

Wish me luck!
