Getting Faster...Oh, Yeah!

I  am getting faster! I've been trying to work on speed by using a faster speed on the treadmill. That's probably part of it. Part of it is also just that I'm getting faster as I'm learning to run and it is part of the process. Anyway, I was thrilled to set a new PR today!

Here are my recent 'big' runs:
3.49 miles in 52 mins 54 secs.....pace 15 mins 10 secs/mile (9/4)
3.49 miles in 52 mins 30 secs...pace 15 mins 2 secs/mile (9/6)
3.1 miles in 46 mins 30 secs....pace 14 mins 57 secs/mile (5K RACE) (9/11)
3.49 miles in 51 mins 19 secs...pace 14 mins 42 secs/mile (9/19)

I won't be at the lake next weekend, and just HOPE I can get a long run in! Then, the next weekend I have my 2nd 5K. I'm hoping to be under 45 minutes. That would be a 14 min 29 sec pace. I think I can do it!!!
