I set myself a goal to do 5k by the end of the summer. (Not as a race; just on my own.) Thanks for the inspiration.0

Do it! You will LOVE the feeling even more!
I would suggest a 10k as others have, and if you can find one a 10 miler or 15k (9.3miles) once you reach the 10k mark...
I signed up with Team in Training and went from not being able to run a mile to finishing a full 26.2 in 4 hours 17 minutes about 14 months later. I started training around August (weighing around 160 - just lost around 25lbs), ran a 10k in November, 15k in July, 10 miler in late August and ran the full in October.
If you keep to a training plan it will happen!
Congrats on the accomplishment!0 -
That's awesome!! That's a goal of mine for this year. It's a present to myself for losing weight!0

Sweetpantsreb: I have looked over the Hal Higdon Plan and it seems very doable. I will be printing that out and giving it a try. I wish you luck with your running/training as well.
Thanks everyone for your well wishes and congratulations! Feels so great to have a support system! I am signing up for another 5K in June and hope to get a better time this go round.
Cheers to getting and staying FIT!0
