Couch to 5K

So in the recent months I have gained a little too much weight for my liking. One of my roommates is an avid runner and she wants to do a 5K. So I decided that I would join her. I found this really cool way to go from a couch potato to running a 5K in no time. Well 10 weeks that is. If your 5K is in less than 10 weeks then you can simply skip over every other week and eliminate your rest days. I will be doing couch to 5K in 5 weeks. I will post what my schedule and what the 5 week version is in my eyes!!!!

5K = 3.10685596 miles

I will be running 3.10685596 miles without stopping. This is my goal for the 5K.

Here is how I am going to do it.....

I found this on the oh-so-famous Pinterest. Yes I am a pinning fanatic. So what if I don't use all the pins that I repin. Here is one that I will use though!!!!

Feel free to join with me in this fun adventure. There are always 5Ks going on in cities for great causes. Look up what 5K is coming up next that is near you. I am sure that this will be an awesome accomplishment for me and hopefully you too!!!!
