My first run!

So today was my first scheduled run to kick off my start of the couch to 5k running program. I'm really excited, and it went great. Before I left I had imagined I would have been able to go a little past 20 minutes, but I didn't, but I'm glad. When I got back I felt accomplished but not EXHAUSTED. My feet and neck hurt a little, which I know my feet hurt because of my lack of good running shoes, WHICH I should be getting soon, hopefully. My neck on the other hand, is just always a problem. Ugh.

I also encountered the traditional feeling of burning and itching in my calves, which I remember from last summer when I used to use the treadmill all the time. Hopefully that'll be gone soon though.

I woke up at 6:30 to help mimic the same time frame I would need to wake up in the morning to jog before school started, except it would be even earlier, like 5:30. It's so pointless to have a HIGH SCHOOL start that early in the morning, no wonder so many people are a dropout.
