    Just wanted to say Good luck to you all!

    I did C25K two years ago and it changed my life. I am now training for a half marathon. Stick to it, it works if you have to repeat a day or weeks do it. Remember that stretching after wards is just as important as your run. If your shins start to hurt make ice in dixi cups they are great for icing down and messaging shins.

    Good luck! Happy running!

    Count me in!

    I have several raaces scheduled with a training plan hanging on my office wall. I've heard that one of the ways to stick to a goal is to be very vocal about it....

    Here are my two goals....
    1) Complete the Nationwide Commit to Be Fit Half Marathon (October 21st) averaging under 14 minute miles with a finish time of three hours
    2) For the "Will Run for Chocolate" 15K, I'd like to average a pace of 13:45 minute miles and weigh in at 164 pounds.

    I'm doing my first run as soon as I get in from work tonight! Would LOVE some support and motivation as I'm sure I'll feel like giving up at some point, and willing to give it too!

    Got thru the first training session today. It was very hard for me. Couldn't run for the whole time every time. I am SO out of shape! Plus it was HOT out! Glad to get a breather tomorrow. I will try again on Wednesday. I really want to do this! I want to participate in the 5k Color Run in Sept. running, not walking! Need to stay motivated...
