                    Hey friends! If you're like me, I enjoy many small, bite-sized chunks. My goals are to run a 10K by June (I can manage a 5K on good days right now)  and to be able to do weight comfortably (I'm a wuss)
What I think would help me get here are schedules! Please recommend some schedules for me, especially for weights (actual weights or body weight exercises). Ex: week X, X sets of X reps of Xlb dumbbell curls or what have you. Bonus points if it's a tried and true one. I plan on increasing mileage .1-.2 miles a week for the foreseeable future.
Happy New Year and may you meet all of your goals!
