The treadmill has been my friend lately, as much as I hate running for a half an hour and literally going nowhere. The good news in all of this is that I&#8217;m finally realizing better conditioning and being able to push myself faster, down into the low 10&#8217;s for overall pace. The ultimate goal is still breaking the elusive 30 minute mark for a 5K&#8230; maybe it will come this Sunday, maybe not&#8230; plan is to not get hurt so I can function in the St. Luke&#8217;s Half on April 27.
