I've been training for a 5K. I started running in January to prepare for a race in May. The progress had made me feel pretty good about myself. I was up to running over two miles and 30 minutes straight which wasn't too shabby...

I didn't run a flat 26 minute 5K like I wanted to, but considering the cold, I think coming in a little over 30 seconds over that is pretty good. Especially since that's still a PR by over a minute.
