Ran 5K.

To some people... this means nothing. In fact, some people, its a warm up.

To me, this is a massive achievement. Most of the time I bike. I HAVE fast walked this on a tread mill just about in a jogging speed but never at full out jog, and never for a sustained time because it destroys my knees... till yesterday.

I took place in the Toronto Goodlife Marathon. Nothing huge, it was a relay team, and all I did was 5k.

The thing that set it apart for me was that I did it in 32 min. On a bummed hamstring, and with shoes that came undone twice. I'm not making excuses. I went out and ran it as hard as I could.... to set myself up with a personal best 32 min. Nowhere near some of the pace the better racers can hold, but for someone who didn't ever thing running was for him, this is actually pretty decent for a big guy.

So I'm going to plant down tonight, and take a stab at a Triathlon in August. Just a sprint. 750 swim, 20km bike, 5k run.

So there.

I like running now. Cause I'm not half bad at it.

Sprint Triathlon....

Here I come.
