**Day 105**

I had a great workout today!  I was on my treadmill for a total of 62 minutes - I walked for 5 min., ran for 25 minutes straight, and then went back to walking for another 32 minutes....I went a total of 3.260 miles.  Yea, I'm slow!  I don't run fast, at all.  I haven't been working on speed - my goal has been just to get through the runs.  I felt really good on the 25 minute run today - my calves didn't hurt, thank goodness.  I think, I'm ready to start working on speed now.  I have three days of training next week, and each day I have to run 25 minutes straight, so I will try to increase my speed each day.  Now, don't think I'm not getting a workout just because I'm not that fast!  I am dripping in sweat when I'm done, and my heart rate is up - trust me!!!   Anyway, I'm really enjoying the running!  I'm looking forward to the 5K in July - it will be here before I know it!

Not much else to say - except..... TGIF!!!!  I'm so glad the weekend is here!!  I'm looking forward to a nice, relaxing weekend w/ my family!  I hope you all have a wonderful weekend, too!!
