Check-in

How goes it? Gearing up for races or gearing down for summer (if you're situated on the northern hemisphere)?

I've finally gotten back to exercising (partner and I have a bet on to see who exercises more days in June/July), and while the first couple of runs were discouraging--I CAN RUN A MILE D*MMIT! type frustrating--today was a much better day, and I have an exercise buddy whom I feel guilty about not meeting at the gym, so hopefully that will make my training more consistent.

I'm running another 5k in two weeks to see if I've gotten any faster, and I am hemming and hawing about whether I'll be ready to run a 10k by the second week of August. But I do have a half-marathon with my brother-in-law scheduled for early October, so regardless, I'll be in good shape by then, and hopefully my December 10k will be easy because of the half-marathon training.
