So, I happened upon a site Couch to 5K and was immediately inspired to get moving. What better way to lose weight than to run? And even better, I have recruited a few people to train alongside me. :-) We're planning to run a 5k in early May. This will be interesting. I am not a runner and have not really run anything since junior high school track team sprints. I was never one to run long-distance cross-country although I've always admired the people that did...
Today is my first day of training. It seems easy enough to do:
Brisk five-minute warmup walk. Then alternate 60 seconds of jogging and 90 seconds of walking for a total of 20 minutes.
We'll see how it goes. Wish me luck!

I have joined Tanisha on the quest to Couch to 5K. I did my first workout today. I thought 20 minutes, oh that's nothing. Boy was I fooled!! It was a really good workout. The alternating jogging and walking was nice. On some of the jogging cycles I wanted to jog longer. I just hope I can keep it up.

Congrats on starting, Nini!!!
I might start blogging my half-marathon training (if i make it hehehehe). Good luck!
So maybe I am cheating using an elliptical :-) But I got my workout on. It wasn't so bad. But again, I wasn't actually running.. LOL
I'm the guy from the C25K site. I love it when i see it has inspired people to start running. Have fun!
