Couch to 5K?

Ok Ladies....you got me going. My 14 year old and I did Week 1 Day 1 this evening. He wants to join track and figured he'd get started now. but now I'm wondering who is going to help me out of bed in the morning!!! LOL.....
 
oh I was doing so well and then on Friday and Saturday I was sick, which has thrown off my schedule and also made my motivation disappear :unsure:
must get back on track . . .
 
I really suck at this... I've been doing it twice a week but last weekend we went camping and it was raining so I didn't run. Now I can't breathe due to my allergies and I'm taking Claritin, Flonase, and Sudafed & Benadryl at night only. I really want to work out and turn this flab into some muscle but gosh I feel like crappola!!!
 
I don't have a treadmill, so I have to run outside. I will be posting pics later, and you'll see why I haven't been running. It's basically been snowing since Thursday. Blech!
 
I walked 3 miles yesterday for my 3day training. I'm thinking my tootsies can't handle 3 days of walking and 3 days of running. So I'm gonna have to skip this I think. But I'll be walking at least 9 miles a week (more as time goes on) until October. After the walk I'll probably never walk again :p
 
Today I did an extra day of C25K week 2 since i had missed so many days since my last session.

Col, tell Jordan to buy you a rickashaw. Then Tigah can pull you everywhere. See... no more walking. :thumbup:
 
Starting over with week 1, day 1 because PA has been very very cold this past week. looking forward to it actually. hubby wants to go away at end of June for our anniversary and I want to be FIT!!!!
 
Mimi way to go!! You're doin awesome girl!

You can do it too LuAnn!!

Thanks for the vote of confidence!!! 3-4 miles is nothing to sneeze at!! WTG!!!

My DS and I started again with week 1, day 1. was really cold with the cold wind whipping thru us but half way through the program, the cold wind was welcome!!!! :thumbup: LOL

Keep at it everyone! we can do it!! I want to be Mimi when I grow up!!! LOL
 
Yay, LuAnn, for not giving up!

I predict by the summer will be running and Col will be walking miles and miles!
 
By summer I should be up to about 15 miles on the saturday and sunday :)
I did my 3 miles yesterday with Tiger. It was a little too exciting for me, lol. (Check out my blog post from last night) I'm hoping tomorrow's walk is a little less exciting.

PS~The wind was pretty rough yesterday here too LuAnn!
 
Who knew iPods could make phone calls?

did week 3 day 3 today. I think I might do another day of week 3 before I attempt week 4.
 
Decided to go ahead and start week 4.

So I did week 4 day 1 today. It seems like a big jump in running time from week 3. I may need 2 days to recover. Right now my legs do not want to move.
 
thanks, Col!
I feel it is important for my psychologically to get past week 4 b/c I believe this is where I stopped last time.
 
thanks, Col. I do have a secret dream to run a 5k race later on this year. The last (and only) time I did that was in the last century LOL.
 
I'm a pretty good cheerleader :) Whoohooooooo Mimi!

BTW, I'm totally jealous you've stuck with this. I doubt I would have, lol!
