It Takes Discipline

For the last week and a half, I have been getting out an running a very small bit almost every other day. For me, this takes two forms of discipline; first to limit the volume (I'm currently running just about a mile and a half (2.5 km)}, and second, just to get out there, especially when the volumes are so small.
I know I have made progress, having gone from sore legs at 0.8 miles to minimal discomfort at 1.6 miles. Still, I have a way to go. I am planning to run a 5K race on Memorial Day. Thus, in four weeks, I need to double my distance. I know I will not be prepared to race, but I will be ready to complete the distance.

Last week:
Mon 0.8, Wed 0.8, Fri 1.0

This week (so far):
Tue (wimped out on Mon - rain) 1.6
