And my answers...( here! )

W(h)eeee!

I am posting this tonight so that I don't forget it. Tonight at the gym I ran three miles in 28:00. That's definitely 3.0 miles, at a pace of 9:20/mi.

I know it probably doesn't mean anything to anyone, but I am so, so proud of myself for this. This is a pretty big benchmark for me -- not only running 3.0mi without stopping, but actually doing it at a pace faster than my normal 6.0mph (10:00min/mi). It's not even like I'm training for anything in specific, but it's always nice to know that my efforts at the gym are actually doing something -- this is solid proof that I'm actually improving, getting healthier and getting more in shape.

So there, healthblog. This is the record! Let's see if I can beat it!

I am pleased with myself tonight. Carry on, LJ. Carry on.

of course, the bad part is that my lungs basically shut down after this. here's an example: take a couple shallow breaths, you know, where you're breathing but not so deeply that you can feel the air in the bottom of your lungs, right? that's what it feels like when my lungs shut down, except that it feels like that while I am trying desperately to haul in as much air as I can with every last bit of energy in my body. After running three miles. I don't know what causes it, but it's really scary when it happens. I almost passed out. Needless to say, I won't be repeating this feat any time soon... not until I'm a little more sure my poor lungs can take it!
