Talking I must be crazy!!!

I just signed up for my first 5k. It's on Feb. 16. Last night I borrowed my daughter's mp3 player to do my "wogging" too. I'm on week 4 of the C25K and when I hit the first 5 minute jog portion I decided to just jog until I couldn't anymore. I went for 20 minutes straight. I kept telling myself I would check the time after the next song and then kept going. I ended up walking/jogging for 40 minutes and had done another 13 minutes of broken up jogging (two 3 minute sessions and one fast 60 second sprint.) Now I just need to find me some clothes to wear in public to jog. I usually just wear sweats or sleep pants when I jog in the yard at home.

You are my hero!! That's one of my fitness goals (to run a 5K) and it's encouraging to hear that you are doing so well in the C25K program!

GOOD FOR YOU!!!!!

And I don't think you're crazy. And even if you are, well then, crazy is a GOOD thing. A VERY good thing. Good luck to you.
