New Couch to 5km challenge - I'm doing it! Anyone else want to give it a go?

[Captain]

Hi Sush, I'd love to join you, but I will have to talk to DH first about him being able to watch the girls so I can get out of the house. I used to be able to run 5km and I found it such a great way to lose weight. So hopefully I will join in.

[sushee]

I got around my DH and him being a little peeved about me taking on more exercise by agreeing to run before anyone was awake! Lol!

Good luck Tenille, I hope you get to join us!

I used to run too, and am looking forward to getting back into it. I havent run for over 12 months, and am very unfit, so this is going to be a challenge for me. I love love love running hard, and breathing through the pain, it give me a chance to totally have a clear head, and just to focus on me and breathing, and no thoughts going wild, just me and running....

Captain, I dont have a chance to work out besides at lunch time at work, so I am using this as my freedom time. Early in the day I will have to get the family ready for the day, and after work, forget it, I will be with DS, so lunch time is it for me.

Looking forward to sharing this with you all.

Sushee I would be totally honoured to join this with you!!
How exciting!
Can someone PM me links to where i need to download podcasts etc?

I am going to have a lot of trouble running as i dont own a sports bra or a bra that fits but oh well
LOL if i don't start now i never will.
Monday sounds great!

[rufalina]

PM on its way.... Good to have you on board!!!

I need to get fit - I'll look at the programme tonight! And maybe repeat a lot of weeks LOL. I'll try to do it around University, but at least I'll know DS is being looked after if I do my running to pick him up from Nursery.

Big day tomorrow! Am actually really looking forward to it. I am getting into the exercise groove like I never have before. Hope I feel this motivated in the morning. lol. Good luck everyone!

[Schmickers]

I'm in. I keep getting to Week 3 and then dropping back.

[sushee]

Gorgeous ladies and gent! Thanks so much for being willing to join me on this - I reckon I may have chickened out if not for all of you jumping in and committing to it too!

Tomorrow starts our challenge! We will keep each other focussed and on track, and encourage each other by posting our progress.

I'm first up at 5.30am Perth time. I'll be using all of you as inspiration when I have to get out of bed at that ungodly hour, let me tell you! So don't let me down, y'hear! I can't wait to har how everyone has done!

[Captain]

Good luck tomorrow girls. I''m afraid I'm out before we even start. DH was injured at work and will be having surgery tomorrow or Tuesday so he definately wont be able to watch the girls while I'm out running. Will try to join in when things settle down a bit.

Janice, have fun! I'll be thinking of you at 5.30 when I'm up feeding Ashlyn.
