Running Update: Just ran the 5K in 37:00 flat, hitting the 3-mile mark at 36:00. That’s a twelve minute mile pace! The fartlek is really helping me speed up. I also didn’t have any back problems tonight, which is nice. I’m not sure whether to attribute that to the preemptive ibuprofen I took or the reiki treatment my masseuse gave me last week. 🙂

That’s fantastic, Kris! Fartleks work wonders, but just make sure to take good care of your knees and calves afterwards (mine take a real pounding when I hit “sprint mode”).

Congrats on your run, Kris! Looks like you’re really ready for your race.
