love 10k

I don't like exercise. Actually that's a lie. I love it, but it's so painful for me. Not because of the actual workout, but because I'm really impatient. I just want to GET there, BE fit already! Yknow?
Well, this time the goal isn't to be fit, although I'm sure with the training needed to do a 10k, that will happen naturally. The goal is to finish my first 10k run in an hour.

That said, the 10k run by sportinglife is an annual fundraising/charity run/walk for kids with cancer to attend Camp Oochigeas at no cost. Pretty awesome.

Right now, my friend A and I have started training, and we're running in Nike Free, which I loved at first for their lightness and flexibility, until I learned they were terrible for your feet. So we are now waiting for the arrival of our Asics GT2000 which offer arch support, absorbs shock impact and ankle support.

I ordered the one in black, and A ordered the one in purple. Gotta say, not the most attractive shoe, but proper runners are always kinda ugly.









Training log:

Day 1 - 3km in 22 min
Day 2 - 3.2km in 21 min
