It may be Labor Day, but apparently my body didn't get the memo and I was awake by 7 so 😂🇺🇸
I got up nice and early and knocked out my first 3 miles in 35 minutes! 🥳🏃♀️
This officially starts Week 8 of my running program, which is honestly hilarious because when I first looked at this program, I remember thinking...
“Absolutely not. Whoever created this has clearly doesn't know I havent ran in over a year” 😂
I looked ahead at some of these runs and thought there was absolutely NO WAY I would ever be able to do them.
And yet... here I am. 😳
Now, let's be clear—I still take a breather at the end of each mile, and I am 1000% okay with that. 😂 It's hotter than hell and humid enough to swim through the air out there. 🥵 Literally soaking wet by time 1 mile is over and just gross by time im done!
My next goal is to complete all 3 miles without stopping... but until then, my little end-of-mile breathing breaks and I will continue our journey together. 🤣
Progress is wild because the things that once made you say “ABSOLUTELY NO WAY” eventually turn into “Okay... but can I do it faster?” 💪😂
Week 8... let's see what you've got!
