I am so not a competitive person. But since I've started running, it's been fun to compete against myself and see myself progress. So this morning, just for fun, I decided to do a speed mile and see just how fast I could do it.
Now, I really don't want this blog to be about how fast I can go. That is not what running is about to me. This is more the reason of why I run. I have compared myself to the best before, and it is just plain pointless.
This exercise was mostly for fun and to see how I could do. It wasn't as fast as I thought I would go, but I did beat my 6th grade time. Now if only I could go back in time and throw it in my 6th-grade-self's face. Take that, 11-year-old me! I don't think she/I would have taken it too well. :)
Becky, you're so funny!! I used to run a 7:10 mile when I was 13. I may need to do the same and see how I do. Congrats!! Great job!
