Yeah it's been a fun journey, and honestly, I think I'm at a point where I'm going to need to shed a few more lbs to knock off that 3 minutes, as I'm about 20 lbs heavier than I'd like to be, but until I can get the diet right, my weight isn't going anywhere.
I started the 3 mile at 27 minutes with a goal of 25, once I got 25 my goal was 23, and so on.
