New goal

I signed up to run in a 10K race next week in Long Beach. This is my first race that I will be doing by myself. Skyler doesn't feel prepared enough to run it. He has been pretty busy lately. I am doing this race in preparation of doing a half-marathon next February. Monday I had a day off so I was able to do a run outside. I ran 5 miles in 38:30 minutes. That is a great time, but I had to stop at the beginning because of a bad side cramp. I will be ready for next week. My goal is to run in under an 8:00 minute mile pace, so that would put my time at 49:36. Tonight I am going to try to get a quick swim in. I am already getting too busy to get to the gym. I hate the feeling I get when that happens.
