News of the Day
Both of the Safeway grocery stores closest to my house stopped carrying Tillamook Cheeses. Safeway was the only store in this area that carried my cheese. I doubt I need to say anything more on this subject.
3 miles. One of my resolutions for 2008 was to run, not walk, 3 miles at a 10-11 mile per minute pace. Today I accomplished that goal! I ran on the treadmill on a flat "road" and felt really good while running and even afterwards. I almost cried because I actually did it! For all of you "runners" this may not seem like much of an accomplishment, but for me, a complete non-runner, it really was. I'm pretty sure I could have continued running if it were not for the fact that I had my mind set on 3 miles. Up until today I was just sure 6mph (about a 10 minute pace) was the fastest my legs could take me, but I found that 6.5 mph isn't that much different at all and it gets me done just a bit faster!
I plan to keep running every week and hopefully I'll pick up the pace a little and eventually add some more distance to the run.

How weird is this, our regular tillimook is way more expensive then the sharp tillimook. Go figure. So we get to eat sharp tillimook cheese now. Maybe I can send you a block?
Good for you and the three miles. The only way I can run is if I am outside. I think running on the treadmill is so much harder. Way to meet your goal!
so jealous about the running! i've been having some back/leg issues so haven't run since november...i miss it! great job!
