1,000+ followers! Paid off my debt! 1 mile run challenge update (Thank you and everyone gets an upvote!)

Hi Steemians!

Today is one of my happiest days in a while. Today I paid off my debt. I've been paying off well over the minimum payment every single month and today is the big day that I finally made it over that hump and made my final payment! Interest payments suck, and having monthly payments eat out of your disposable income sucks even more.

In addition to paying off my debt, I am also blessed to have reach 1,000+ followers recently. I've been so busy lately and stressed that I didn't really notice reaching the milestone and the stress has affected my workout routine. So to celebrate all this good news, I decided to pick up where I left off and ran my mile that I've been working towards getting to sub 6 minutes. I took a few breaks and that's why the time is faster than usual but I'm going to focus more on getting back in shape going forward!

After the run, my girlfriend and I went out to grab a small celebratory dinner and I of course needed a nice cold beer to really hit the spot.

Here's a POV shot from the gf because she takes better pictures.

The girlfriend loved the french fries and gave it a 9/10

Overall a very great day and a stress filled couple of months but totally worth it. I can also finally start to think about the next vacation so feel free to throw out some suggestions. Thanks to all my followers who have been supporting me and wishing everyone good luck out there!
