Felt really good to get back to moving today after missing Sat and Sun.

I got in 2 miles in 30.15 and then did another lap.  Ran like 3/4 lap and then walked and repeat with warm up and cool down.

Total guess on mileage.  Probably not that far.  I finally made it out of the house to exercise.  At 4 pm.  I went over to the rec center and did about 10 min on the eliptical and then about 20 min in the weight room.  It felt good, esp to do something different.

Back to the treadmill this morning.  Did a speed play program - walk 2 min at 4.0 mph then 3 min at 3.5 mph for 30 min.

really great run today.  i ran a lap/then walked a lap.  got to 2miles before 30 min -just barely.  i tested out how far i have to go to really be running a 5k in 30 min. i've got a long way to go.  i finished the last 1/2 lap running at 6.0 mph and i about died. how do people run faster than that??
