So I have been working on the couch to 5k plan doing well until week 6 hit! It has been hard to get past the first day on week 6, but today I ran a full mile without stopping! :)

    I did the last part of couch to 5k and I am running with a group that is training for a half marathon(Feb 15th) I have had good weeks and bad weeks but stick with it. You are really doing yourself a favor by getting out there. If you can find someone to train with that is better. I also find having a goal works good. Have you picked out a date for your 5k at the end of your training? Sign up now if you can and that way you have that goal as you are running. Don't forget to set some goals for after you finish your couch to 5k training. I have picked out 4 races that will get me through the rest of the summer and I am still working on my plan for fall and winter.

    Well I haven't signed up for a 5k yet, but our school does one in April, so I will be doing that! I'm not quite sure when I will hit the 3k mark during the weeks...I'm kinda having to change it up for myself...so maybe in a week or so....

    WAY TO GO! As a "running hater", I really applaud you. I can run for a bit but I don't think I have done a full mile. I now have a new weekend challenge so thank you! :smile:
