Couch to 5K...Day 1

I have been wanting to start walking/running for a while,but didn't want to do it by myself. After many weeks of hounding my husband he finally gave in & said he would go with me. I have had "Couch to 5K" app OB my phone for a while now so we decided to use it. Today we completed week one, day one. It is a three day a week program that can be completed in as little as nine weeks, but if you are not ready to advance you can repeat days over. It eases you into being able to run a 5K. You start with a five minute walk to warm up then you complete three intervals of walking/running. Each day you progress to more running & less walking. We will be completing the first day over on Wednesday due to the fact that we were both more out of shape then we thought. I completed day one, but it was a little rough toward the end, and now my legs are killing me.


When we finished running we went to Pizza Hut for supper. Then we went to Walmart to have my glasses adjusted. I ordered a pair online & only paid shipping for them...will post more about this tomorrow. While in Walmart the kids and the husband had to look around (and try ever hat in the store one).
