Getting out of Babble Land...

[cpk]

I think they have a couch to 10k out there mmmmm.... http://www.myrunningtips.com/couch-to-10k.html ..... here i one website I found on it.... I had tried the couch to 5k the first time and I gave up, but a girl at work who runs told me to train by distance and that worked for me for example 1st week I ran .5 mile then next Increased it to 1 mile all the way up to 2 miles she said to stay at 2 miles for 2 weeks then increase it again for example the next run would be 2.5 then 2.75 up until 3.1 or 5k it can be adapted to 10k or 6.2 miles if that works for you or give the couch to 5k/10k a shot.......I typically run 6.5 miles when I run outside I do not typically worry about how fast I am going as much as enjoying the run.....even if you have to walk a bit to catch your breathe so to speak that is okay. Dont worry about how fast or slow you run just run. :)

Thanks, Frez. This is really good!! It makes sense. I'll have to push, and do excellent self care to give my overall health a boost. Even if I falter a bit, nothing lost, right? :)
