I know someone on here told us about this ... its on the coolrunning.com website ... is anyone else doing this? Whoever suggested it I just want to say thank you!! This program is going great for me ... I have never run before and I got up to an 18 minute pure run today, which is a lot for me lol! (It was 8 minutes run then 5 walk then 18 minute run actually) Anyone else taking up running as a form of excercise recently? I always thought I couldnt do it before, because I would run like a minute and die lol. I am so proud of myself, I am trying to run a 5k in the fall ... and I want to run a marathon in a couple years. I never thought I would like running! Its not bad for the figure either! I am thinner now than I was before I got pregnant!
