So today I took my first run of the summer (a scary thing, I assure you) and found I wasn't nearly so bad as I thought. I did my standard 'starter' loop of 1.29 miles... in 11 minutes and 20 seconds which is around an 8:41 pace.

By the end of the summer I would like to be able to:
- Run at least 6 miles without stopping each week
- Run a 5K in less than 21 minutes
- Run a mile in less than 6 minutes, 20 seconds (just one!!!)
- Take one or two REALLY long runs sometime. Like... ten miles or something outrageous
- Run at least 5 times a week, no matter what.
... Right.
