Yes, I just ran my first 5k (mileage)!! I remember a long time ago when I ran my first straight mile after knee surgery, I was so excited. The excitement of running a 5k (3.1 miles) just blew that excitement out of the water. The best part of it all is that the excitement of being able to run more and more miles is only to get better! I was on the treadmill at the gym and I honestly felt like I could have kept going. Wow, I am feeling so great right now. I'm so going to be that person that starts signing up for random 5k races on the weekends just because I can. I'm a runner now ... haha, that still hasn't quite sunk in yet! :)
Daily miles: 3.1
Total miles: 25.1
