did 3 minute cycles - almost!
I was so close, it kills me! We were doing 6 cycles of 3 min run, 1 min walk. the first 4 cycles were good. cycle 5 I needed to focus and sing a song in my head (reminded me a bit of childbirth). Then cycle 6, up a hill, I was only 1-2 minutes away, and I felt nauseated. I told myself I could do it, keep pushing, but the farther I got up the hill, the more worried I was I would barf in front of the whole group. I walked for the last minute. I'm really disappointed because I was worried about the 3 minutes and almost did it. I guess the take home message is have snack before going and dinner when I get home (I ate about an hour before and thought that would be good enough). Oh well, I'll do it this week, at least I know I probably could have, my willpower was there. It was good to be with a group because I don't think I would have pushed myself that hard alone. Its embarrassing to say 3 min at a time is a big deal, but I'm writing this blog so one day I can be an awesome marathon runner and look back at my very humble beginings

Wow Kathleen! You are doing awesome. Keep it up. It's a long steady road to do this but so worth it in the end. I've been thinking of you tons and praying for you. I know you can do it!
