Couch to 5K

Okay I am in love with running. Holy endorphins...I need them...bad. I am on week 4 of Couch to 5K. I have really been running for 6 weeks though (I repeated week 2 and week 3 because I didnt think I was ready to advance). Week 4 is awesome.

• 5 Minute Warm up
• Jog 3 minutes
• Walk 90 seconds
• Jog 5 minutes
• Walk 2 1/2 minutes
• Jog 3 minutes
• Walk 90 seconds
• Jog 5 minutes
• Cool down

I signed me and Matt up for our first 5K. My therapist is all for it and doesnt feel like my running obsession is my eating disorder in disguise. I will admit to having some eating disorder thoughts when I think about running but I am not abusing exercise. I think there is a healthy balance I just need to keep myself there and keep going to therapy every week and be honest.

Matt and I are running the 5K version of the Double Bridge Run in Pensacola! So I will face my bridge fear head on as I run over the Pensacola Beach bridge. It sounds all great now but ask me a few days before it!

Okay it is almost time for America's Next Top Model and popcorn with A!

Blogging Take 2.

Obviously the whole blogging thing didnt work out for me last time. I think it had something to do with Matt being in Korea and me not wanting to relive my days after I got the kids all settled down for bed each night. What a long year that was. Now that it is over I think I am going to give this blogging thing another try. I have found a couple of healthy living/running/fitness blogs that I enjoy reading. I guess I think maybe I might have something interesting to say that someone might find helpful. I also think it would be a cool way to keep family and friends updated with what is going on in our lives. I doubt I will post daily. I don't wanna set up too many expectations. Especially the way things worked out last time :)
