Is it just me or did the first week of this challenge fly by? Maybe it’s because I was super busy or because I’m just getting older. It just seems like the older I get, the faster time goes. Whatever the reason, I can’t believe it is time for our first weigh in. We have […]

How’s this for last minute race registration? I signed up to run the Capital 10K (Austin, TX) that is happening as you read this (or if you are reading later on Sunday, look- I am already done running!)….. I registered today (Saturday….as in the day BEFORE the race, at 3pm to be exact). How’s THAT […]

  Is it just me or does it seem like running is the new craze? Every where I look, people are becoming runners. People who never thought they’d ever dream of running are now signing up for 1/2 marathons, running 12 races in 12 months, and some are even qualifying for Boston!! There are grandma’s running in […]

I don’t know about you, but I had a pretty good week. What I’m confessing is mostly good. I’m also thinking that a lot of you will be doing the same thing. Saturday was our Run the ‘Hood 5k. I had a blast doing it. I wrote all about it over here. I’ve been trying […]

I was bound and determined that I was going to run the entire Run the Hood 5k next weekend. It is something that I have never done before. I have walked more 5k’s than I can count. I have walk/ran some of those, but I have never ran an entire 5k. I figured I wasn’t […]

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. […]

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 […]

Yes, I know we’re between challenges…but that doesn’t mean we can’t all check in with each other. Right? Right. Sooooo. How did this week go for you? I’ll tell you one thing…I am MORE than ready for our upcoming challenge. I need it. Badly. What is our next challenge, you might ask? Well, we’re bringing […]

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 […]
