My First Run

Yesterday I went on my first run in my training to run the LA Marathon. Because I play both basketball and softball, I am already in pretty good shape, so I decided to start out with a 5 mile-run. I am proud to say that I completed the run without too much difficulty and did so at a pretty decent pace. Today is a resting day and my entire body aches. My legs are sore and feet have blisters. I had to run in my nike street shoes because I don't have any money to buy running shoes, and they gave me so blisters on my feet. Tomorrow I will run another 5 miles and then on Sunday I plan to run 8. I have plenty of time to train for the marathon and I am certain that I will accomplish my goal. I am very excited about it now.
