Milestone achieved!

OK, my friends, I'm here to tell you that good things come to those who try! Did my interval workout on the treadmill today. (As I mentioned before, it pushes me to run on the mill sometimes...even though today was so much warmer and I wanted to be outside.)

For the first time, I broke 28 minutes for 3 miles. Came in at 27:48. That was so much fun to see the seven! A major confidence builder. I wish there was another 5K coming up. Alas, not for a while. Next thing on the horizon is the Flushing 13.1.

So, now, I have to keep my promise to Joe. I told him when I achieved this goal, that then I would start putting the treadmill on an incline. This makes my Achilles unhappy, but I must train it to deal with hills. Next week we (me and my Achilles) begin.

Feeling strong.

Feeling skinny. Well, skinnier anyways. Have to fit in the blue dress in less than two weeks. So, that has been additional motivation to eat well.

Who has some low calorie, low fat, healthy snack ideas to offer? I'm soooo hungry now that I've increased my activity level.
