5K(ish)

I just ran the first 5K of my life!

Probably the longest sustained piece of running I've ever done. I've never been a fan of running just to run, but have never had a problem with it in the context of sports. Just now though, I just ran for 35 minutes at an eleven minute mile pace, total distance 3.25 miles.

The rub, of course, is that I did this on a treadmill. Treadmill miles are somewhere between 1/2 and 3/4 of real world miles.

Still, the muscle is building underneath this slowly dwindling wrapping of fat.
