I don't know where I'm going, but I sure know where I've been...

thanks to my Garmin Forerunner 305! Susan bought this for me for Christmas last year and it has been a great tool to help with my running. In the last year, I have run over 1100 miles including races of 25k, 13.1 miles, and 5k! I would recommend a GPS watch to anyone who is getting serious about running - but, if you are just getting started, there is a great site to track your miles on at www.mapmyrun.com. Check it out!

Today I ran for 1 hour and totaled 6.25 miles at 9:36 pace. I ran for 20min, 15min, 10min, 7min, and 4min with a 1min walk in between. Taking a walking break is a great way to build up mileage and get your body used to working for a longer periods of time. I have a slight pain in my left foot, so I took it easy. Hopefully icing it and with a day of rest tomorrow, I'll be ready to go again on Monday and some speed work on Tuesday.
