Update on the Couch to 5K

So if you've been reading you know that I started this in late April.

I was doing really well and was halfway through week 5 and then busyness (is that a word?) struck. I completely slacked off. So now that I have pretty much lost most of the stamina from before, I decided I had to start over. So last week I began week #1, this is now week #2 and it is not as hard as before. I know the next few weeks will get harder. I will keep you all posted. :)

Procrastinating...

So I need to do some major homework and go workout, but instead I read my emails. So I wanted to share two of my today favorite below.

BTW... I went on a workout hiatus two weeks ago when I started back up with classes. I find it it so much easier to stick to a workout routine when I only have work, not work and class. I usually start some type of workout routine on my school breaks, only slack off once class start back up. So I have decided that while I am still in school I will work out 3 days a week. My original plan was 5 days a week, but I find myself justifying not working out at all when I have already missed the first few days of the week and I know I won't meet the target of 5. So 3 it is. I have missed 2 weeks of the "Couch to 5K", I completed week 4, so today I am picking up on week 5, hopefully it does not kill me since I am sure I have lost some of my endurance. I also was doing the 30 Day Shred after my run for 2 weeks before I took my "break". I was still on level 1, apparently I have a hard time keeping up with Jillian Michaels. :( Well, I can't put it off any longer...wish me luck.
