Yeah, Sandye I'm super excited for tomorrow's run so I can say I've completed C25K and then I plan to run a 5K this weekend. I'm having a heck of a time registering for it. It's in a small town about 45 min. to an hour away from me and their online registration form won't work, I've e-mailed the contact person with no response, but I'm determined to do this one because I won't have another chance at one around here for over a month due to schedule conflicts. Okay enough of my sob story...just sharing.

Jessicado you are awesome! I'm starting C5k program this week too so it'll be fun to be starting it with another newbie. So last week my husband and I went on a vacation and I accomplished absolutely NO exercise and ate like I was dying tomorrow. Needless to say I put on 2 lbs! so now I'm going to have to work extra hard this week to get all my minutes in before the 31st. But I'm always up for a challenge!

Jessicado, I haven't started my days yet, but I really want to today. I think you did though--how'd it go? I always look at the beginner stuff and think "peeshaw, whatever...I can do that!" Then it kicks my butt and I realize what a marshmallow I am ha! So W1D1 should be interesting.

Today I got in 1 hour of booty ballet (a mix of modern dancing, ballet, and yoga). I got smart and did it while my little girl was sleeping. That's right, that's that college degree working. Soooo worth the money.

Hopefully I can get in that walk/jog--every calorie counts! Good luck ladies!
