Couch to 5K!

I love the blogging world!!

I have had this nagging feeling that I need to do something that is totally mine for some time now.

As a mom, and even more so as a stay at home mom, it is easy to loose yourself. It is almost a requirement that you put yourself last. Without the opportunity to mingle with adults on a daily basis, it is easy to forget who you were before kids.

I decided to run a 5K as my new year's resolution this year. I personally think this is a nice, little goal. It is the equivalent of running about 3 miles, and in my past life, I used to run 3 miles on the treadmill after work several days a week. This is a do-able feat for me.

I threw this out to the blogging world last week and Supermom asked me if I was doing the Couch to 5K. She even sent me a link!

I am totally going to do this! I am starting next Monday and am making a commitment to go to Lifetime Fitness at least 3 days a week. If I get to go 4 days, I will do the 3rd workout a second time. I am also writing down everything I eat/drink, to be accountable.

I feel like this is the best plan that I have had in many years. Who knows, maybe next year I will be planning a 10K or a half marathon!
