First official day

Ok maybe it is not my first day running but it is the first day on the runners world training schedule. The first week calls for 2 miles on Monday then 5 on Wednesday and 6 on Saturday. I know this is going to be hard. I did 3.5 miles today so I over did it a little. The reason you ask, well the schedule calls for speed work on the 5 miler but I don't want to do 5 miles of speedwork so I changed it to today. Some of the speed work was 6 min 58 sec mile speed. That is fast for me. I think the longest I ran that was a quarter of a mile. My lower calves are sore but hopefully fine. We will see. I am excited and worried all in the same thought. So far I have 2 friends running the same race so bring on the trash talk.

Later ya'll
