5k 101

I started something brand new today, lets just say this is HUGE for me!  Exercise has always been a 4 letter word in my book.  But I am turning over a new leaf.
I found this 5k 101 online.  A friend of mine told me about Couch Potato to 5k years ago and I thought that's nice for other people.  Well lately a couple of my sisters have been doing it and I have to try it if they are. 
So I went and bought myself a new pair of exercise shoes from ROSS for way cheaper than you can get them anywhere.  They are cute and I want to wear them.  So this morning I started.

First thing ya need to go to Itunes and download the podcast.  There are many, but this is the one I chose.   http://itunes.apple.com/us/app/couch-to-5k/id448474423?mt=8
There is a guy named Todd that guides you through this podcast.  He first suggests you take the
                                    Accountability Challenge:  which means get a friend or two to do this with so
                                                                                 you have to be accountable.  I chose my HOT
                                                                                  Husband and because of his work schedule we are
                                                                                  going at 4:50 am, nothing like spending the top
                                                                                  of the day with your best Friend.
                                                                                                                              
Website dailymile.com :  He suggests you get on this, I don't understand it but when I do you will be
                                          informed for sure.

                                                                                                   facebook 5 k101.com: I guess go on
                                                                                                                                        & like this on fb.

K so in 8 weeks I (yes me who DOES NOT run) will be ready for a 5 k.  I don't know how far that is, but I am excited.  And the best part is they want you to do this ONLY 3 times a week for 30 minutes.  Wish me luck!!!!!!!!!
