Before After

In 9 weeks I will run a 5K in 31 minutes

 I really like to jog, and i'll go though phases where I do it all the time, but it seems like everytime I stop for even a few weeks, I am back to square one where I can barely run a mile.  At one point I was up to running 30 miles a week. However, I have always been slow (at best my pace was probably a 12 minute mile) and I want to improve my time and work my way back up. That is why I've decided something officially just now so I am writing it on here so I won't change my mind. I am going to incorporate the c25k program in with my BFL program. On my weight training days I will do the c25k workout also. I figure it is only 20-30 minutes so it will be easy to squeeze in.

My Goal:

In nine weeks I will run a 5K in 31 minutes.

Hy

What a great challenge to set yourself!  I've done a couple of 5k's, and never made it under 34 mins!

I should take some of my own advice ... but try doing some fartlek sessions to help you to speed up a bit.

Hey there

Look at you go! 

Great goal and I'm excited for you. 

Have a great week 7!  (or is this 8)  I know you will work to make it your best one yet!!! 

cool!

did you already sign up for the 5K?  Good luck on your running!

Thank you for the comments

I appriciate your comments, though i will be honest in the intimadation factor.  You are very photo genic, and have a great face, two amaming qualities.  So when you posted, I was liek wow she is reading the ramblings that I try to make coherent?  Please take it as a wonderful compliment. 

Good luck running the 5k,

Again thank you, and good luck around for the coming weeks.
