5K Runs: Thursday and Today

I didn't get a chance to update on Thursday because my day was so busy. Anyway, I did run a 5K as per my schedule of every other day AND I did my run today as well. :D  I'm incredible happy with my run today. I beat my run on March 9th (I just realized that this was still before I started uploading pics of my run. I'll try to upload my first couple of runs over spring break.) My March 9th run was completed in 33'39" and my run today was completed in 33'34". Today's was only 5 seconds faster, but I'll take whatever I can get!

My run today

Here's my run from Thursday, March 17th.



I must say that I LOVE how my legs are looking. Really, I've only been running for a short time, but my legs are starting to look amazing. Now just to get rid of my midsection....

Does anyone else have the Nike+ ipod sport kit? I absolutely love mine! It really helps keep me motivated during my runs and I really like the visual elements of the graphs, the goals, and the challenges. I think I'm hooked!

At the top of my graph, there's a bar broken into different colors. Each color represents a level. As an individual increases their miles with each run, they slowly work toward the next level. The yellow level starts at 0-49km (0-30 miles). As of today, I'm only 3K from the next level, which is ORANGE. (My favorite color.) :D Including today's run, I'm now at 46.09km (which is about 28.57 miles!).

 I'll post below what the other levels are according to the Nike+ website.

There are six levels that correspond to total kilometers run:

• Yellow (0-49km, 0-30mi)
• Orange (50-249km, 31-154mi)
• Green (250-999km, 155-620mi)
• Blue (1,000-2,499km, 621-1552mi)
• Purple (2,500-4,999km, 1553-3106mi)
• Black (over 5000km or 3107mi).
