Day 2 of couch to 5k!!!!
Feeling very proud of myself today! I was pretty sore from Tuesday's run so when I got home from work I told Taylor I did not want to go running. He went to work and I was doing homework feeling a little down on myself for not following through even 2 days of my program. Lacey starting whining and being crazy so I knew I needed to take her on a walk and I figured I might as well just do it! I put on my running shoes and stretched out and did 27 min! I stuck pretty close to the walk/pattern this time! I am proud of myself! Still slight pain in my shins I'll put some ice on them tonight! I am down 1lb for the week so far! Taylor Joined weight watchers which is awesome! He is the Weight-watcher notzie though! (I need him!) I keep meaning to get a before picture up! Thanks for reading this... if you are!

Day 1
Alright so day 1 of running was a bit of a challenge. My shins felt a little better today then they have in the past but still some pain. I did 33 min of walking/jogging although not exactal per the program. I am going to get to the point where I can at least do the 60/90 for 20 min 3 times in a row (resting 1 day in between) then I will jump into the program! It felt good to try though! I will get this!!! 2011 BABY!
Couch to 5K
Day 1
So, I have been wanting to start this program for a while but now I am finally doing it!

I have had some shin issues so I am a little nervous but I have new running shoes and I plan to stretch really well. I think that by blogging about it I will stay motivated. (At least, I hope)
I have lost 4 lbs since starting Weight Watchers on the 1st so this will just keep me going! My end goal is 70lbs which will put me at 140lbs!
In November I did a 5K in 53min so in 9 weeks when this program is done I plan to beat Taylor's time (32 min)!!!
Today Taylor has the day off so when I get off of work at 2:30 we are going to go running. The plan for the 1st week is A brisk five-minute warmup walk. Then alternate 60 seconds of jogging and 90 seconds of walking for a total of 20 minutes. 3 times this week. They recommend 1 day of rest in between so I am going to do it Tuesday (today), Thursday, and Saturday. I'll let you know how it goes.....
