I signed up for a 5K. Started training. There's only 9 weeks until my run. Getting nervous, hope I can do it. I weigh 171cw. My cell is 147. By End of June.

    When I was getting back in shape for road races, interval training (run/walk/run/walk) was my best friend!!
    Look up the John Galloway method and you'll get some ideas. It builds your endurance step by step, and you don't feel like you're killing yourself in the process (which was good for my ego!)

    You don't have to run it all. Lots of people take walk breaks. I know people who do marathons with walk breaks! Do the best you can and have fun!

    I'm excited but scared at the same time.
