I did Week 3, Day 1 of Couch to 5K this morning. I followed the program and ran 90 seconds, walked 90 seconds, ran 3 minutes....then at the end of the first 3 minute run the skies opened up and it started pouring. At this point I'm about 3/4 of a mile from home. I decided to just run home (I actually said to myself, "I'm gonna run this bitch out") and I didn't stop once. It felt amazing! It's kind of fun to run in the rain. I actually giggled at one point because I was soaked and my contact was coming out of one eye and I'm sure I looked like a freak running down the sidewalk in a downpour. It was invigorating and I never once felt like I was going to die. Maybe because I was so distracted by the rain and just trying to get home. Either way, I survived it and I actually can't wait to get back out there tomorrow and do it again, rain or shine.
Mark was waiting on the porch for me just smiling because I was booking it down the street splashing through the puddles on the sidewalk. Good times.
