And I Really Thought It Couldn't Be Done...


I ran today. On purpose. :-)

I really want to run part of the next 5K I participate in. I have decided to try the "Couch to 5K" running plan. After having printed out the schedule several times over the years, I have since discovered that you actually have to do more than print it out... ;-)

So, 1 workout down...26 to go! Going to put a tracker in my side bar for accountability. :-)

You can check out the schedule at Cool Running.

my husband just showed me this schedule about 2 weeks ago and we talked about how easy it looks! but you are right--we have to do more than print it out or talk about it. :)

way to go!

Go, Go, Go!!! You can do it!! I had a friend who never ran in her life just train for and complete a half marathon. You can do it if you decide you want to!

Way to go! :)
I am not a runner...unless you count the running I do with Wii fit! ;)
(Actually, I really do actually run in place so I guess that kind of counts!)
But keep it up...can't wait to see your progress!

Thank you so much for the encouragement! :-)
I completed workout 3 of week 1 yesterday and feel good. I still can't imagine EVER being able to run a mile, though. ;-)
