Don't stop. That's the name of the game. Never. Stop. Improving.

I know I'm not the most fit or active person here. Far from it. But I feel like I'm doing better as I've picked up running again and working my way up to a 5k. Just remember that it's easier to get out there and just do it than sit and think about if it's worth it. Health is important. Sitting around all day won't get you anywhere.

From my last post or two, i was deciding if I would run today as I didn't want to face possibly 4 days of down time. I decided to go out again, without the intention of beating my time, and did pretty well I'd say. My legs aren't overly sore, so I believe 2 days downtime max. Especially with having work. I believe I've cut off about 9 seconds from my personal best.

A fear I have when it comes to this, is that I'm constantly pushing my times lower for the mile. Eventually I'm going to hit a plateau. While it feels great to get lower times, I need to keep preparing myself mentally that I can only push so far. Which is why my main focus has been turning towards distance and duration.

Had to add in a bit of extra walking to hit 15k at least. I am currently running 1.2 miles straight each run. I've started adding in the rest of a 5k as well, but just for walking. My current personal best for a 5k is around 39 minutes I believe, but as I increase the distance I run, I should be able to shave that down considerably. My current goal for running a 5k is 25 minutes.
