Couch to 5K Update

Hi friends, today starts week 3 of Couch to 5K training. I question myself at least every other day "why am I doing this?" and I don't know the answer, BUT we are doing it! I'll be honest and admit that I don't follow the every other day schedule train, rest, train, rest, train, rest, rest...but I do get my 3 days training in.

The first day you had to walk for 5 minutes, jog for 2, then walk for 5 and I'm so embarrassed to admit that jogging for those 2 minutes was HARD, I was real out of breath and watching the seconds on my stopwatch so I could quit. But I'm excited to say that yesterday I jogged 6+ minutes and YES I was tired & felt winded, but it wasn't nearly as hard as those first 2 minutes just 2 weeks ago.

Keeping my eye on the prize!

Couch to 5K

Hi friends, it's the 4th Fat Chick Allie. I too slacked off this summer and let my eating get a bit out of hand. And you all know my hatred of all things considered "working out". But I've got my mind ready and am back on track. Starting today the couch to 5K program. It's a 10 week program, that goes at a very manageable (slow for most) pace. My good friend Tara is joining me. We are researching 5K in our area to sign up for in March.

Anyone else want to join us? If so you can get the schedule HERE.

I'll keep you posted as things progress.

Happy Week!
