5 K Run

Ross I started training for a 5 K run (as if rock climbing and soccer wasn't enough). General Mills has this 5 K run in the beginning of May that I signed up for. I thought I could do a 5 K in 20 minutes so I went over to my parent’s house to try it out on their treadmill. I set the treadmill at 9.4 miles per hour and started running. After about a mile I realized this was stupid. Not only was I out of shape for running a 5 K in 20 minuets but running on a treadmill is way harder then outside. At least it is harder for me. I slowed a down a little and stopped after 2.3 miles (my legs caught on fire, and my heart popped out of my mouth). I guess I’ll have to take it slower at first and start running outside.
