5.2
Has anyone heard about the 5.2 diet? I am told you are to eat 500-600 calories twice per week (depending on your weight) and the other five days eat more of what you want.

Ran My 1st 5k??!
Saturday I ran my first 5k with a friend. She is an experienced runner as she runs marathons often. She slowed her pace down a lot to run with me but it was nice to have her there encouraging me.
