4 Miles in 44 minutes and 51 seconds

I'm beginning to think that if I can run four miles in less than 45 minutes that I should be able to do a 10k in less than an hour. It's just a mental thing that I need to get my head in to focus on staying on a treadmill that long and running in place. I am looking forward to the weather cooling off so I can run outside and determine which I prefer better.

Today's goal of 4 miles in 44 minutes and 51 seconds made me ecstatic. I almost wanted to high-five the guy on the treadmill next to me when I finished it. But, he was walking on a serious incline and I didn't want to hit his hand and have him fall backwards.

TGIM has been accompanying me to the gym and we have a little joke when we walk out all sweaty that we look like we ate watermelons and all the juice dripped down the front of us. TGIM can pull this off because he is always covered in sweat from his neckline of the shirt right down to near his belly button. As for myself, however, the sweat starts right under my boobs and goes down to my belly button. So, it looks more like my boobs were chomping on a watermelon.

I hope I can keep up this pace and train hard. I look forward to what my next workout will bring me!
