my fifth run. hopefully this represents a minor milestone, because i am now more than 50% through three weeks of running (9 runs). at the three-week mark, i hope it to be a finely ingrained habit in my weekly ritual. if i can make it that far. right now my lower legs are HURTY HURTY. but that's ok. i got a decent time; 14:28.78 minutes. i really would like to improve to the point where i can be doing 1 km in roughly 5 minutes, but i'm not sure if that's a realistic expectation of my achey body. at least not for awhile. i don't want to push myself too hard, to the point where i turn myself off of running, or worse, injure myself.

in other news, i'm off to a wedding on saturday, so i finally have an excuse to wear the kilt i got in scotland back in april. yay!
