Couch to 5K.....again!

I am back on the working out wagon again and as you can tell by my posting title, Couch to 5K is also back.  Reason being:  my sister and I are officially signed up for the Komen Race for the Cure in Saint Louis.  When I say we are officially signed up, I mean we entered in as timed runners.  {Eyes wide open in fright}.  What have I gotten myself into.....

Last week I started in the gym again training on the treadmill.  I had decided to take photos of my distance and times each time I completed a day of training so that I could get if I was getting better throughout my course.

Wednesday, 5/15

Friday, 5/17

Monday, 5/20

Day four of training is today, and I am not going to lie, I have NO motivation to go to the gym today......so sleepy!!  All I want to do is put jammies on when I get home and watch TV all night.....BUUUUUUT we all know that I cannot do that.  So, to the gym I must go!

Komen Race for the Cure

What an amazing organization the Komen Race for the Cure is!  If you have the opportunity to attend one of these races in your area this year, I highly recommend it.  This year will be my 10th time participating in the Race for the Cure.  

I participate in the Race for the Cure for one woman in particular: Teri.  

I have decided that this year, I am going to RUN my first ever 5K!  My sister Jena, myself, and Andy are going to run this to honor the amazing woman that Teri is.  

Teri and I in 2009 at my friend/her daughter Kristina's graduation party.

Training for the 5K starts Wednesday, May 8th. (5 1/2 weeks to train)

Race day: June 15th, 2013.
