I plan to run a 5k in August. I have never run that distance in my life. Not even in high school. I have really never run anywhere, period. I think the last time I voluntarily ran at all was when I played pee wee league soccer. I figure you people can keep me accountable. I walked a bit today (about a mile) to start and jogged maybe .25 miles in spurts. Between my asthma and couch spud ways, its gonna be a battle.
Couch to 5K! There are apps for iPhone/iPod/Android, or podcasts that you can download to any MP3 player. Totally got me back into running when I was 15 lbs overweight and in very bad shape.
ReplyDeleteGood luck! I can walk for miles, but I don't run.
ReplyDeleteYep, I have the couch to 5k. Starting it Monday.
ReplyDeleteYou can TOTALLY do this. I'm cheering for you.
ReplyDeleteI'm impressed. How on earth do you find the time? Good luck, I'll look forward to your updates!
ReplyDeleteAwesome! Good luck. And definately put together a power-song list!
ReplyDeleteI totally agree, Couch to 5K is a great program. I had to take it a little slower than the schedule though, because I am epically lazy. Good luck!
ReplyDeleteI am seriously considering doing the same. I keep saying I am going to start running, and never get my sorry ass out of bed to actually do it. I was thinking signing up for a race would motivate me.
ReplyDeleteDid you do it today?
