Couch to 5K- Day 1



I meant to start my first day earlier this week, but I got about 6 mins into it and couldn't finish. I've been battling a bad sinus infection and I just couldn't breathe at all. So, I attempted to start again today since I'm feeling a LITTLE bit better.

It was rough and my calves were on fire... but, I finished it!! No pain, no gain, right?!

Yesterday, Derrick and I went out on a hunt for some new running shoes (well, running shoes for me, work shoes for him) since the running shoes I have now are like 4-5 years old (LOL! oops!). Shoe Carnival was having a buy 1 get one 1/2 off sale AND I had a $5 off coupon..so that's where we headed.

About a little over an hour later (HA! I'm severly indecisive!) and texting about 6 or 7 people (I needed their opinions) and drivng my fiance absolutely nutty looking at all the different shoes and going back and forth between two pair.. I walked out with these babies:



They are even more beautiful in person and they make my feet smile!

  1. Yay for new running shoes! I asked for these babies for Christmas http://www.sportsauthority.com/product/index.jsp?productId=4448203&cp=10889018.10889035&parentPage=family
    I'm pretty sure they are more for walking which is right up my alley :)

  2. I did the couch to 5k for a while this summer, and it was terrific! I hate running, but it got me running two miles at a time, and under twenty minutes! I've fallen a bit out of it, but it was terrific while it worked. And running shoes are the most important thing to have to be a good runner-- enjoy and good luck!
