I just got back from a 3 mile run. Not my first one, but the easiest. I'm amazed. 13 years ago I couldn't run a mile in under 18 minutes. 1 year ago I couldn't run 2.5 miles without taking walk breaks. A month and a half ago, I had never even run 3 consecutive miles. I'm amazed because anything really is possible. And it's true, some days are just easier than others. Last week my friend Vanessa and I attempted 3 miles and I remember crying out "I just want a glass of wine..." I made it with at stretch break half way through, begrudgingly. Tonight was great though, I actually enjoyed running for the first time :)
