20 minutes, suckas

Oh my heavens, we did it.

Week 5, Day 3. Take that, Robert Ullrey.

I can't believe we made it. I mean, I believe it -- one has to believe in order to survive it, but wow. We went from running a max of 8 minutes to running a mile and a half in 20! I have never run that much in my LIFE...not when I played soccer, not when I played softball...I was never capable of running that much without stopping. And there we were, 5 minutes down, 8 minutes, 10 minutes...and then before I knew it, we had three minutes left, and I thought, "My god, I can make this!" And we did.

Looked ahead to week 6, doesn't seem nearly as tough as week 5.

And this was all after lifting weights this afternoon. Amazing. Completely amazing.
