Good afternoon! How are you this fine Monday? It’s time for our weekly C25K check-in! I should have just started Week 8, but I found myself getting a little behind this past week. I have started back at the gym several times a week. MUSCLE WORK + KICKBOXING = SORE MELISSA = NO RUNNING Yeah. [...]
It’s Tuesday and time to confess it all. Have you been good? Bad? Eh? Did you fall off the wagon/get back on/pull the wagon? Here are my confessions: I am tired. My days begin at 6:30am and don’t stop until at least 8pm, sometimes later if I still have household stuff that needs to be [...]
Good morning, friends! How are you? I know at this point, many of us are at different stages of the couch-to-5K program and that’s okay! Some of us have repeated weeks, or started completely over. What matters is that we aren’t GIVING UP! I just finished Week 6 yesterday. As in a 25-minute jog. Holy [...]
Good morning, couch-to-5k friends! How is it going? We now have a dozen of these workouts under our belt! Can you believe it? How did Week 4 treat you? What did you think about those 5-minute intervals? Did you survive? It has definitely been tougher for me, but I am sticking with it! My back [...]
Helllllloooooo there, couch-to-5k’ers! You didn’t think I forgot about you, did you? Never! Okay, well, maybe a little. But only because I have been totally busy finding the best deals ever on furniture, and then I got a little sidetrack and moved furniture and started a million projects on my main floor. PHEW. I’m tired. [...]
Good morning, my couch-to-5k friends! How are you? I am typing this from my iPad as I sit in the middle-of-nowhere a.k.a. the rig. Where Internet is sucky or nonexistent. Sorry for any errors you see! I can’t figure out how to get out of the HTML editor. Most of us just finished up week [...]
Good morning, Couch-to-5K’ers! How’s it going? Did you survive Week 1? Or maybe you are just finding us and getting ready to lace up your shoes for the first time? Week 1 went excellent for me. I was surprised, really. Yesterday, I set out on my Week 2, Day 1 workout. The runs increase to [...]
You have probably heard that we are putting on a race in October– Run the ‘Hood Virtual 5K/10K & Kids’ Run. It’s for anyone, really, walkers/runners/woggers… any age, any ability. I’ve now finished 3 half-marathons and several smaller races, but I’ve never had a race where I am able to consistently run {slow jog?} for [...]

I like to run. Well, it’s more like wogging (walk+jogging) but whatevs. I get the job (ie mileage) done. Prior to October 2009, I was vehemently OPPOSED to running. I mean, it hurt, I sweated a lot, my breathing sucked, and did I mention that it hurt? Why would I want to willingly and knowingly [...]
