First Magic Mile

I think what drove me to put so much faith in the Jeff Galloway running programs was his use of the magic mile. I fully believed it would take a lot of magic (and faith, trust and pixie dust) to get me to run a half marathon and trusted his magic. And the RunDisney endorsement of course! 

Today was my first Magic Mile in his Half marathon app program and possible one of my toughest short runs to date. I'm used to the path in Denton I kept for so long, the one past the jail with one long steady hill at the mid point, where I got to come down on the way home. Nope. Our new neighborhood is nothing but hilly slope after slope. And getting used to them is kicking my butt!

Good news is my first magic mile is in line with my goal. Now to celebrate by buying myself something for Tax Free Weekend, and a new watch for the Deputy.
