vicky120,
Here are a few links to 5K training programs. I'm following the 1st one, but my sis let me know about the other in case it was too aggressive.
More aggressive 9 week program (probably the more popular program)

This site has 2 programs that are less aggressive, one takes 4 months and the other is 7 months
