    Thank you!! Wow, this is my first post in the discussion forum and I am overwhelmed with all the positive encouragement.

    I followed the Hal Higdon 5k Novice program, which I found was very helpful. I run slowly, but I'm very proud of myself. I use an indoor track at the YMCA, which is great.

    I hope you succeed in your goals too!! We are in this together :)
    PS I totally agree that a good sports bra is awesome!
