WOW... like honestly, running for 20 minutes straight!! NO WAY!! I had a HUGE smile on my face after the first 10 minutes of running. I had no issues with ONLY the 1minute walking break, I was ready to run again when it was up and running for another 20 minutes went just a great as the first 20 minutes.
I was supposed to run yesterday BUT since I decided on Sunday that I was simply too good to stretch I really paid for it Monday and Tuesday. I was even having a hard time walking, my Hips were in so much pain!! So last night I decided to give my body a good stretch and also added some Yoga in the mix. That seemed to do the trick, this morning I felt 100% better. So lesson learned ... NEVER EVER skip your stretch before and after running, you will pay for it later!!
I am so ready for the last session of week 10. Friday I will conquer 22 minutes run, walk for 1minute , run for another 22 minutes, no biggie!!
THIS was a BIG deal for me today!! I am so PROUD of myself for coming this far and conquering everything that still to come. I just feel amazing!!
My question for you today;
What are you proud of today?

Good for you. There is no feeling like being proud of yourself. Today I stayed late at work to get some stuff done. Then I started to bring yet more stuff home with me and left it there! I am proud I drew the line.
That is awesome!!! Last year, I let a particular 10K race break me down. I vowed to never do it again. I am proud of myself for facing my fears, and entering the race again this year. It's Saturday; and I'm pumped!
ok that is AWESOME! I looked at my training schedule and those 20m runs TERRIFIED ME!
I'm not there yet - still on 3 mins and I've come to a standstill. No training due to life taking off. :(
Sheesh!
I am SO happy for you and I can't tell you how much I have loved reading about this! You give me hope!!
Way to go Claudia! How cool that when you do your 22 minutes you won't even be phased. It is such a great feeling to accomplish these kind of feats. Yay for you!
Oh, and I hear you on the after run stretching. It's a must!
And what I am proud of today is that I survived day one of bootcamp, and will hopefully complete my other two workout activities. Yay!
