First run with the new watch

Got to take my watch out for its first run today. It worked great!

Garmin Forerunner 25

Well I bit the bullet and bought a runner's watch. It's a Garmin Forerunner 25 and it came in the mail today.

I wanted something that could wirelessly sync with my phone, this was the least expensive model that would do it. Can't wait to try it out!

Gadgets gone awry

I've been using the GPS in my phone to track my runs.

Today it started calling out some crazy times, as in the fastest runners in the world can't run as fast as it was telling me I was running.

Then I got home and found the map showing I'd run loop-d-loops all over the neighborhood!

I'm disappointed. I've really come to like seeing the data from my runs. Maybe I'll have to look into getting a runner's watch.

Second 5k

Ran my second 5k today. Finished in 36:43.

Allergies were hurting. It was humid as all get out. And the course had some major hills. 

I'm really liking this racing thing!

First ever 5k!

Ran my first 5k today!

I finished in 33:54, I'm very happy.

Progress

According to the scale today I weigh 234 pounds! I can't really see a difference though.

C25k finished!

I finished the C25k program today!

I'm so thrilled! I'm signed up for my first ever 5k in a couple of weeks.
