Week 5 Continued

Did my second 8 minute interval run yesterday. I went to the Boardwalk with a friend of mine and we did the run. Went fine. No complaints.

Today though...was my 20 minute run. OMG!!! I did it. I did it, but it was hard. Omg was it hard! It nearly killed me literally. haha!! Nah, it was tough, but I did it. I really had to talk myself through though. After halfway through, it got really tough. But I concentrated on my breathing and slowed down the pace a bit so I could keep going. After a few minutes, it got easier. Then after a bit, it got hard again, but I continued and made it. It was tough, but I can run for 20 minutes straight!! I will do it again tomorrow morning!

I did hurt my ankle a little bit. Not while running, but gave it a little twist when I was stretching. Seems all right now. I think I just pulled it the wrong way. But doesn't hurt right now. I just had to rest it for a little bit.

But if it bothers me tomorrow, I won't run. But it should be fine.

Anyway, just wait till you guys reach week 5! Feels so good to accomplish it, but it was tough.
