    You won't know if you don't try but don't go too hard at the start. I did the C25K as so many here have also said. It was great but it might help to start even slower. Check out my tips - things that I learnt while doing the program.

    Good luck!

    Thank you all for all your positive comments. I'm printing out some info on the couch to 5k and I'm going to start the wk 1 on Monday and work my way there!
    I'm trying to not talk myself out of the 5k :)
    And as for my BF I think he 1 is afraid I'm going to get hurt and 2 afraid I will be disappointed in myself. One person asked if he was overweight he is actually very thin but he is naturally think but not physically fit if that makes any sense. Lets just say at 260 I'm in better shape!
    The couple of people who offered to train with me I will send a private message to later so that we can stay in touch <3
    All things are possible through Christ who gives me strength!
