Couch to 5k

Today was day 1 of my couch to 5k program.  Is anyone else currently doing the program?  I'm signed up to walk the Indianapolis Mini Marathon in May.  I would love to be able to run part of it.  Any encouragement would be appreciated!

Thanks!  I will post weekly updates!

I also did it in the past and it really does work.  I did the Blarney run which was a 5 k full of the dreaded hills (I jogged the whole thing) as well as several on flat land and even one on a cruise ship.  I need to lose some pounds before my joints will handle the pressure of jogging now though.  Just me

 Good Luck!  I hope to enter in a couple of 5k's this year myself.  I can't wait.

Stephanie,
I started it last week, but will be doing week 1 again this week. My only goal is to be able to run a 5K with my daughter who will turn 22 in June. Even if it means that we have to set our own course and run a 5K with just the 2 of us.

Wednesday will be day 2 for you, right? You will probably be sore tomorrow and Wednesday too...GET YOUR BUTT UP and MOVE on Wednesday.

Come on Girl, we can do this.

Trish,
Thanks for the motivation.  Today was actually day 2.  And I was proud of myself that I went straight to the gym after getting my son on the school  bus.  Usually I go back to sleep, but I didn't!  Now I'm off to my first Anatomy class.  Hope every one has a great day too!
