Day 3... Week 3

Well, I felt defeated last night when I ran.  It was hard.  How hard can running for three minutes REALLY be? Hard enough that I yelled at my husband during it.  Hard enough that at the slightest incline I thought I may die.  Hard enough to where I feel like a total wimp.

Oh well.  Life will go on.  I'm going to try to move on to week 4 but if its too difficult I may step back into week 3 again.  I'm trying to succeed!  At least I'm doing something still, right!?  Nevermind that my counterparts are well into week six!!!

Week 2... or Week 4?

Well, I am still doing the c25k but I took a week off (why!?) then I decided I needed to repeat week two.  So, I did week 1, 2 skipped 3 and am now on 4 but am technically running week 2. Does that makes sense? Oh, who the hell cares. :)

I'm moving onto week 3 (technically 5th week running) because week 2 is no longer hard for me! Yahoooo!

I feel like I've had small success and failure all at the same time. Oh well, moving forward! :)

So Long Couch!

When my fellow blog buddy Jen posted something on her facebook about thinking about starting to run... I jumped on the bandwagon with her.  Only two days later Jen had an entire email list of other ladies that were hopping on the bandwagon to join in the Couch to 5K madness!!!

What did I do?  Duh! I employed Shandy as my personal motivator! Since we have been toying around with the idea of being more active and not being such fat asses since January, I figured she'd be on board.  We're getting into the third week of this business and I'm proud to say that I've stuck with it!

I am going to have to repeat week 2 because... well, it kicked my ass.  But, that's ok! I am still moving this lug of a body of mine!

So... that's the update for now! Hopefully by the end of the summer I will be able to jog for more than 2 minutes at time. Um, that sounds so pathetic!
