Two Miles

I finally ran two miles today. Two miles straight. I've never run two miles, period, even with a walking break. My main focuses while I was running were posture (shoulders back, away from the ears); deep, steady breaths, exhaling completely; knees slightly bent at all times; back straight; hands and arms loose; focus on heel-to-toe. I felt like I had slowed down, which I was ok with since I wanted distance, not speed, but I managed to shave three minutes off my typical two-mile time! Needless to say, I'm proud of myself today.
