5k prep

I am preparing for my first 5k over Memorial Day weekend.  In all honesty, I have no idea what I am doing!  I just know that I want to fini****time does not matter.

I am working out 7 days a week-one of those days with a trainer.  I do cardio 7 days a week --treadmill/intervals and lift weights one day a week.  There is no gym within a 30 mile radius so I have to be creative--and I lift weights at the trainer's house. 

Any suggestions on how I can best prepare for the 5k?  TIA

Just keep running, running, running,

Actually a lot of people here used the couch25k program

It starts off slow, so if you are already beyond what it starts at, just begin where you feel like you fall into the plan.

I still use it today, but I have increased the speed at which I run it.  It has been a very good tool.

Thanks!  I just found that program through google--gonna check it out!

I used to be in the military and would run 5 days a week, 5-6 miles a day.  Although I could run the distance, I sucked on the time.  Now I just want to finish the race!

C25K is awesome i did the program preop and lost 30 lbs!  Its great. I'm back on the program now.

You will finish way before you think you will, even if you walk/run! Best of luck to you!!!

Aww thanks!  Glad to hear that you endorse it!  I'm looking forward to getting started!
