I suppose from my lack of updates that you may have guessed I have completely failed at c25k. I was doing well there for awhile. Then that proverbial stuff hit that fan, and well, here I am, still out of shape. For those of you who don’t know, Aaron has been laid off from his [...]

Week 1 Day…uh…

I went to the Y tonight and did another day of week one. Alex did better in the nursery this time, although he wasn’t super pleased. There are no big revelations this time. I’m just glad I got out there and did it.
Still Sick

I’ve been reading the “rules” about exercising while sick, and it seems as if I should still take the day off, unfortunately. It’s said that if your symptoms are above the neck, then by all means go workout. You should just do a light day. However, if you’re symptoms are below the neck, i.e. aches, [...]
Sick

I’m sick. I’m beginning to think I’ll never make it past day two of the first week. Hopefully I’ll feel better tomorrow. Right now, though, I barely have a voice, and I’m feeling a little wheezy. Luckily, Alex is currently playing independently, and seems pretty happy.
Week 1 Day 1 Redux and Other Thoughts

I’m back on the wagon again! I’m starting over, obviously. This time I ran at the Y, and it was a pleasant experience. It was nice to run on something a little softer than pavement, but I still would prefer to be outside (although that desire will probably change as the months get warmer). The [...]

Alex is still sick, and Aaron is still out of town. I most likely will not make it to the Y today. Maybe on Wednesday I can start C25k again. I’m waiting to hear back from the doctor. He seems better than he did a few days ago, but there’s still a decent amount of [...]
A set back…

So, I’ve had a little set back with C25k. When I started the program, I was very dependent on Alex being in school three days a week. I never thought about the fact that he might have a day he couldn’t go. I know. I’m insane. Kids don’t get sick and schools never have holidays! [...]
Week 1 Day 2

When I woke up this morning and found out the temperature, my motivation for doing the second day of this program fell quite a bit. I mean…18 degrees…really? I thought, “I’m sure if I go out there for any length of time, my nose will freeze off my face!” However, after milling about the house [...]
Week 1 Day 1

I just finished the very first part of C25k, and I’m still alive! Things I learned: Running is hard. I thought about giving up about half way through – just for a brief moment. My shins hurt a little bit, and I was tired. I couldn’t seem to get my pacing right. I was just [...]
Tomorrow and tomorrow and tomorrow…

I’m blogging again! Yay! It’s my attempt to create some accountability for myself. Tomorrow I am going to start Couch 2 5k. I know. I’m crazy, but hear me out. I’m sick of being fat, and I’m sick of having no energy. “The hell!” you say, I’m sure. It’s all true though! I really am [...]
