I did the Color Run 5k in Dallas on Saturday. This was the first official timed 5k I've run since I've started doing DopeyBadger's plan. I've done a lot more interval training since I started a couple of weeks ago and while I found it tough initially to stick to 30:30 intervals (it always seemed like I'd barely started running when it was time to walk and vice versa), I figured trust the process and it's gotten better. I've never been fast and this last December was the first time I've ever done a 5k in less than 40 minutes and my best average time was 12:54. This Saturday, I finished at 12:12, so I think the combination of the intervals and running more frequently is definitely helping. I have the Rangers 5k in a few weeks and I'm hoping to get below 12.
