Man, I'm such a wimp.

I ran this 5km run/walk thing for hunger this morning, and I found out I could barely run it at all. I swear, even though I stretched and everything, I could barely run maybe 300 feet before my legs seized up and my chest started aching. I'm not sure why this happened. I mean, I know I don't have any endurance for running whatsoever, but I've never been that bad before. I guess it could have been a combination of it being early in the morning, me not eating anything beforehand, and me still carrying this annoying dry cough from when I was "sick" a few weeks ago.

Oh, well, I guess. I just ended up trying to power walk most of the way, intermittently trying to jog a bit to stay ahead of some people. I finished in like 48 minutes, which is good for me, I think. I also didn't finish last, which was my entire goal in the first place.

Then I discovered that we only really probably ran about 4.19km, so that's kind of depressing. Not even three miles.

Somehow I managed to fall, too. It was hilarious. There was this part where we had to run through some grass for a short distance, but there was this ridge between the grass and the pavement, and I was like "...I'm going to trip on this, aren't I?" even though I was trying not to. And guess what? I did! I fell slow-mo style and kind of scraped my hands a little, muttered "This is lame" and got back up again. XD

After finishing, I ate breakfast with two of my friends (who also ran it), then crashed for 2 hours. Which is fantastic because I have a paper to write.
