C25k - Week 1: COMPLETED!!






Today, I successfully completed the first week of C25k treadmill program. It was rough, but Jenn's words about pushing through, really helped me today. I didn't want to go to the gym after work, but I did and got on the treadmill and did my walk/run. As much as I'd like to move on to week 2 of the program, I don't think I'm ready so I'm going to repeat week 1 again. Hopefully the second time will have me ready to move on. I have the ultimate goal to run a 5k and will continue to work at it until I achieve it! And now, I have a buddy who is going to start the program. We will run our 5k together! I'm happy about that!

For those of you who don't know, this is what week 1 of C25k entails:

I thought I would add that I have done so well this week that I am actually looking forward to my weigh-in on Friday!!!!
