I did an interval workout on Wed. eve.....a 1.4 mile jog to warm-up; 2 minute intervals alternating with 90 seconds of recovery (which I walked) x 18 minutes, then a 1 mile cool-down. I am sore and will be taking it easy for a few days. I'm still the slowest, but am still lapping everyone at home on the couch.

I do have an interesting predicament....as I increase my training, I am constantly ravenous! I eat non-stop. I am still eating "clean".....healthy, unprocessed, plant-based.....but am gaining weight. I did some research and learned that this is a common problem. You might guess that you'd lose weight as you train more, but that isn't the case for many people. I'm hoping that I am gaining muscle. I don't have a scale that measures body fat percentage, and don't plan on getting one as it is just another number to stress over. I'll just keep on listening to my body and eating healthily whenever it tells me to feed it, as long as my clothes still fit.
Thanks to Danny at Boulder Running Company for the pictures and for leading the runs.
