I've never been a runner. When we had to do the mile run in gym class in school, I walked it. We often had to run laps for volleyball, but I was always at the back of the pack. Sometimes, the girls in the front would even lap me.
So when I first heard about the Couch-to-5k program, I was skeptical. Not skeptical that the program works, just doubtful it would work for me. I was way off base. Not only did I complete this program, I did it without ever having to repeat a day. I started on July 20, and I did the last run on September 13. And today, I actually ran 5k. When I was done, I was whooping it up outside like a child. I'm sure my neighbors and the people driving by thought I was crazy, but I don't care. This is a huge milestone for me, and I'm looking forward to the race I registered for on October 3rd.
