Couch to 5k

Shaina and I have been doing the couch to 5k program and I have to say that it is pretty good. I don’t run, or rather I didn’t run. I hated it. Mostly I hated it because I’m not a little girl and that I felt like a fool going out running. Which is ridiculous! If anything, I should feel great that I am getting out there and doing something.

That’s how I feel now. Then again, we run pretty early in the morning and at a park that there is no one at at 8 in the morning! Still, the program is really awesome. It beats the weight loss pills reviews and different exercise machines you see on television, that’s for sure.

Tomorrow is our week 2 day 2. I think we’re going tomorrow anyway. I foundĀ  a dollar on our run one day. Very profitable day that was! I really recommend this to anyone that wants to start running! It’s not as hard as you think.

I’m gonna be a runner

I’ve always liked the thought of running and doing exercise through just leaving the house and not paying anything for it. Motivation on the other hand is something I lack when it comes to exercising.

This could explain why I’m so overweight now! Imagine that! So tomorrow morning before we start working, Shaina, Jeremy, and I will be heading out for our first run.

We are going to do the couch to 5k program which gets even the laziest people out there and running 5k in I think it’s five weeks.

We’ll be going to the Fireman’s park where the Salamonie River is. This is the river:

The water looks nasty but the park is pretty. I just have to remember not touch any plants. Last time I did I came out with poison ivy. That isn’t fun. I’ll then spend all my time running my rash under the bathroom faucets as the hot water feels good on them.

Wish me luck!
