Hiya! I'm Shelby from the US and I am currently a college senior about to graduate this May.

My goal is to go from 142 to about 120 and I chose to learn how to jog. My school has a Jogging for Fitness class that I signed up and we meet 2x a week and that class is no joke! I love how it pushes you, but still gives you a chance to go at y our own pace. I want to add an extra day (maybe on Sat or Sun) because I would feel better if I exercised 3 times a week. I'll add a 4th day later on, but it won't be as intense as the other days.

I made a new year resolution to complete a spartan race, but since it's pretty intense I have a mini-goal in place to complete a 5K!

I really hope I succeed this time!

    Well done you seem really motivated. I tried the c25k app and pulled a muscle the 3rd time a jogged. It was really hard going as I was so unfit. Maybe I should try again now the weather is getting nicer. Doing 30 day shred just now.

    You sound super motivated and that is half the battle! You can also try cycling on your off days. A stationary bike is good. Cycling really helps running! It increases your cardio and build leg muscle.

    Good luck and congrats on your upcoming graduation!
