5k in 30 minutes = failure

Well that's embarrassing. My March goal was to run a 5k in 30 minutes. You should know that it was terrifying to put any kind of timed running goal at all on there. I am not fast. ever. At all. And in January I was barely running at all. But I thought I could really push myself and make it happen.

It's totally possible that I could have pushed myself and made it happen. But I didn't.

I was busy sitting around.

And working.
And feeding that baby.

So, Instead of waking up at o'dark thirty in the morning to go running, I slept in. Hit the snooze. And burried my running shoes under all the pretty shoes and flip flops.

So I didn't even run a 5k in March. Much less one in 30 minutes.

However, I did start running regularly. Even though I hated it.

This failure is how Josh got $50, which he invested in Coinstar stock because it sounded like fun. (Who am I married to? I spent my $50 on cute shoes!)

  1. I can only imagine the terror in putting a timed goal on a run....i think it might possibly take me 30 minutes to run half a mile. There is a good possibility that I walk faster than I run also ...so I just stick to walking most of the time ;)
