Getting in Shape

Running clinic... FTW

So I'm a huge NON-Runner, but I wanted to convert and become healthy. I didn't know that I could ever actually run farther than 3 feet.
FI and I joined a "Learn to Run 5K" Clinic here in town, and I actually ran 2.6 km STRAIGHT (And without death.....lol!)
I'm not a smoker, never have been, but I have always become very winded while running.
I hate all exercise classes and exercise DVDs (I just end up quitting...)

Just wanted to post it so the girls who are in my position will have a little more motivation! :D
I'm pretty excited, and now all I want to do is run! It's a great way to get in shape and to spend some time with FI! (who is in fantastic shape already, as he is a firefighter.. but he did it to support me..)

Re: Running clinic... FTW

  • YES!!

    I just joined a 5k running group, start a 10k in May, and a 1/2 marathon group in July.

    I love to run, but was never very good at it.  I've finally found my (slow!) pace, and love running even more.
