I have been wondering my pace of running for quite some time, and since I don't have a Garmin Forerunner yet (hint hint, for anyone that wants to buy me one), I decided to time myself this morning. I timed my one mile at 10:45. Of course, I might have been running just a tad bit faster than normal, but I couldn’t tell for sure.
I once again did 1.25 miles non-stop. Sadly I did not make it to the 2 mile non-stop club, but maybe next week I will. On the return trip, I had to stop several times, so I didn’t hit 1.00 mile non-stop on the way back, but I made up for it by taking an alternate route home, and ran a bit farther than I had planned. I hit that runner’s high with this decision because I made a spontaneous last minute change. It was one of those body and mind being in total harmony moments. LOL.
I also was pleased with my weigh-in when I found that I lost a couple more pounds. I was getting a little discouraged because my weigh-in for the last couple of weeks was consistently 197, but then Wednesday I was 195, and today I was 193. Not too bad considering when I started I was between 205 – 210.
So, things seem to be going quite nicely. I still want to get the Garmin Forerunner 310 XT. That sweet baby has GPS, and will tell you your pace, distance, and heart rate. NICE!

Wow! Good for you!
It's always nice to see progress. The trick is sticking with it when you don't see any.
Good going!!!
