Today felt great!

Yay! 3 miles on the treadmill! And it was faster than my 5k last week, although I was on a treadmill with flat terrain the whole way... just trying to be positive :)
I stretched, abs, a little bit of arms and then the eliptical for 30 minutes. Very successful workout! I felt so good. I meant to go 4 miles but I just can't seem to pace myself. The farther into the run I get the more I think, ok I need to go faster because this is what I'm on pace for and that is ass slow. So I speed up and then am too exhausted to finish. What I need to accept is that I am ass slow right now :) I'm training for a MARATHON, not a 5k. But... maybe I do need to seriously focus on smaller races right now. I have almost a year until the marathon. It's just 26.2 miles is SOOOO far! I'm scared! lol
I've been researching different marathons in Florida and came across this one:

It doesn't seem like there are many marathons planned in Florida for the fall, but I'm thinking that is because that is still a ways away :)
Good Night!
