From exercising to training

I just took the big step today and signed up for my very first 5k run!  I am so excited and nervous all at the same time!  I know I can do it because I am now walking/running 3.1 miles every time I do the C25k.  After the session is over I complete the distance and when I get to 3.1 miles I stop.  I want to be sure I can go the distance!

So now my exercising has now switched to training!  I figured if I signed up it would keep me honest and I would keep going and not quit!I spent $25 on this thing so now I have to keep going!

By doing this I am not looking to be the fastest, I just want to run the race.  You never know what you can do if you don't ever try!  I was always the girl that complained and never tried anything...not anymore.  I am doing something about it!

So now I have until May 7th to train my butt off!
