Yippee, yippee! Today I ran 6 miles. In just under an hour. Just in case you missed this...
I...RAN...6,...YES...SIX,....MILES IN LESS THAN AN HOUR.
Me, for whom my dad's pet name was Pudding. Me, who couldn't get 1 point for my House during the athletics season at high school. Me, who was cast as the minotaur in the tales of Odysseus because I was so big. Excuse my smug, self-satisfied expression but I've waited a long time for some kind of athletic glory. I've trained hard too. And I've just worn out my first pair of trainers. They had holes and everything because I'd done proper sporty things in them.
I'm getting closer to my goal of running an aggregate marathon in a week.
