1- mile, 11 minutes 04 seconds

Training Day 1:

The morning was a bit overcast as it had rained most of the night. The mist was rising from the ground and there was a slight breeze to contend with as we began our run. Steve said the conditions were ideal for a morning run.

Steve has suffered some calf injuries, so this has been his first run in several years. He took it slow and steady and encouraged his wife all along the way. There were many times he could have picked up his speed and had a faster time overall, but he didn't.

Sherri is pretty sure the 11.04 minute mile run is not a record breaker by any stretch of the imagination, but for her personal record, it's her best run. This was her first 1-mile, non-stop, run ever and she is excited that she made it through it.

Tomorrow we will do some cardio and ab work and then on Thursday we will do our second 1-mile run.
