Running: Keep on Going

bewizeI went running tonight, as I'm wont to do of late, and got a horrendous cramp in the back of my right thigh. Since I had no intention of hobbling home and I was too far to turn around, I just kept going.
Ummm, owie, owie, owie.
Lots of stretching later, I feel better. But good lord, that smarted!
I've agreed to run a 5K on Thanksgiving, so I need to get in shape so that I won't humiliate myself for that. Plus, there's a potential 6 mile run in the beginning of Nov. Hmmm.
Anyway, the route I ran tonight ended up being about 2.5 miles. That's not terrible, especially since I did the whole run in less than 30 minutes. *pleased* I shall keep on keeping on and just keep trying to add distance and shave time as I go.
I know I'm down on the scale, too, but I don't know how much yet. I'm refusing to obsess about that until Monday.
