I ran 5 miles again on the treadmill today. I cut nearly 2 minutes off my time from last week, and for the first time ever, my overall pace was < 10:30. It's so neat to see (and feel) progress. Makes the effort all worthwhile; it really does get easier, just like all the books say.

I sent a PM to Jo-n-NY; I think it's great that she's joining us! We beginners have a lot to learn from the more experienced runners here. You've all been very inspirational to me, and it's nice to feel a part of this little sub-group of TE, especially since I am not riding at them moment (soon, though!)
