I USED to do this same distance in about 21, so I have some work to do. My short term goal on this 2.3 is to do it without walking. Came home and dinner was almost ready. Screw the people, I didn't smell all that bad, and they are a family of runners so they would understand.
Today my son has baseball practice next to the track. I'm going to do some intervals and time the 50 and 200.
I use the walktracker to get my times/distances. I saw that when I crossed 12:00 I was at 1.30 miles, so the first item on the test is OK.

Awesome! Glad to hear you go out there. The only thing I'd say is
if you can try to skip the soda (I understand there's blood sugar concerns) or subsitute it for something else (coffee, tea, low calorie drinks if you just need the b/s boost and not the energy/caffeine kick)
