New to MFP

edited January 22 in Introduce Yourself
I am new to MFP. I am a husband and a father. I have two great little girls, 4 & 1. I have realized that if I want to be around to watch these two girls grow up and grow old with my wife. Then I need to make some drastic changes in my life in general and my diet in particular. I have started the C25K program. My goal is to start running 5K's with an ultimate goal of running a half marathon. I know that is a good ways off, but I will get there. Any help and support will be GREATLY appreciated. Please friend me give me advice and motivation.

  • You can definitely do it. C25K is a great place to start. I have heard a lot of good things about it! I love that your kids are your inspiration!
  • Also, have you ever checked out www.runningahead.com ? It's a running website where you can log all your runs. There are lots of wise runners on there to give you running specific advice and encouragement too.
