Easter is over. Spring Break is flying by, but did you know there is now less than 10 weeks until Memorial Day. Just 10 short weeks until swimsuit season.
If you are like me, you probably put on a few pounds over the winter. I'm afraid I put in a couple stone as they would say in England. I thought I would try the Couch to 5K training podcast and see if I could do it. I have never ever ever ever been running. I do walk. I even lost over 100 pounds walking and eating healthy a few years ago. But I have let myself get out of shape and out of the habit of exercising.
I have been through week 1 training all week and am about ready to start week 2. I can tell a difference already. Hope my knees hold up. I hope to run a 5K this spring after I finish the training. This is an 8 week program that is supposed to get you running 30 minutes straight by the time you finish. You also can follow the Facebook page,the group is called Running Mate
