A Breakthrough

After months of skipping running club, tonight I decided to go with a few co-workers who are also training for a half-marathon. We all run at a similar pace - slow - its more of a consistant jog than run to be quite honest.

Tonight though, I ran better than I have run in months. I actually lead the group most of the time. Again, we are not fast, but it felt good. We only ran 3 miles, but it was three miles in which I was not thinking about how much farther do I have to run. Hopefully this the breakthrough I have been looking for.

If you live in a city with a Niketown, I suggest swinging by one and join their running club. Tonight we talked with a guy who works for Nike, and he totally offered to help put together a running plan for us. I know you can easily download one off the internet, but I thought it was really cool for him to offer to create a plan for me. I might just have to take him up on the offer.
