Just a Quick Update

I finished Week 3 of the Couch to 5k. It was rough. I think I either need new shoes or I need to adjust the way I'm running. I'm going to try giving myself 10 more minutes of warm-up before stretching, instead of stretching right away and then warming up for 5 minutes. Hopefully that will help me stretch out my calves and such so I don't end up in so much pain halfway through. I weighed myself on Friday morning and I've lost two pounds. Not much, but it's a start.

As for reading, I've finished One Bullet Away. It was an amazing book and made me want to be a part of the Marines even more. I've definitely made the right decision on which direction my life should take. Currently, I'm reading To the Shores of Tripoli: The Birth of the U.S. Navy and Marines. While I'm not very far in, I've learned some things they don't really teach you in high school. It's turning out to be an interesting book.
