In anticipation of a 5K I plan to participate in with coworkers, during my usual nightly 2.25 mile walk, I jogged for 60 second intervals six times. And I'm still alive!! We have a 8 month old Bernese Mountain Dog who walks with me and I think she is more tired than I am.
It feels good to know that when I was starting out at almost 300 lbs, a few flights of stairs winded me and I can see that I have come a long way! It feels so good to think that I might be able to accomplish my goals! the 5K is in September, so I plan to do a couch to 5K program.
Praise God who makes all things possible!

Amen brother! You have come a long way ... I have been amazed at your progress. You will get there ... I have had some nice gains with the C25K plan. Sounds like tonight you were doing a bit of HIIT ... great fat burner.0

That is AWESOME! Baby steps to your goal! You're doing intervals now and soon you'll be on your way to that 5K! Keep up the great work0

Awesome! You're an inspiration. I keep "wanting" to be a runner, but I never challenge myself by even attempting to run in intervals (afraid of hurting joints at a high weight), but even running 30-60 seconds makes you a runner in my book!0
