Let's Do This!

Tonight was my last run before Saturday. I ran 3 miles in 35:51. I'm not as happy with my time as I'd like to be, but I couldn't be happier about the distance considering only 5 and a half weeks ago, I couldn't even run a quarter mile. I'm convinced that running with people will motivate me and increase my speed. Right? Please tell me I'm right. Two of the people running with me run 10 minute miles or better, and another girl has 6-foot long legs, so her strides are twice as long as mine (yes, I'm talking about you, Megan) so I'm really going to have to pick it up if I don't want to be left in their dust. I have plans to go to the gym two more times this week, but I'll be taking it easy other than that. Wish me luck!
