Couch to 5k: Week 1

On Monday I started the couch to 5k running program. I started out with a 5 minute warm-up walk, 60 second run and 90 second walk, alternating the running and walking to total 20 minutes three times a week. I wanted to skip ahead a couple weeks because I felt like I wasn't getting a work out and that it was too easy, but the article stated to not skip ahead and stay on track. So I am.

Week 1: I feel anyone can do, whether you're a former avid runner or someone who wants to reach their goal of running 3 miles, so far this program is perfect. I ran my 20 minute run on Monday, Wednesday, and Friday. On Tuesday and Thursday I did Jillian Michaels 30 Day Shred and I decided to take off the weekends. On Monday I'll start week 2! Here we go again!
