For the past three weeks, I have been training for a 5k as part of Cool Running's "Couch to 5k" Plan. And while my weight-loss may not be noticeable and I haven't run three straight miles quite yet ... the difference this plan has made in and on me is amazing.
My stamina is back. I feel better, happy. My blood pressure is down. And my mood-swings are less. I know the weight loss will follow, and I am okay with that for now.
For the first time in a long time, I was frustrated with something at work today (wait, that's not the first time in a long time) and I thought to myself, "Ugh, I can't wait to get home and run!"
So chipped knee, fractured toe, and toxic Helberta House be damned. I am back!

I stumbled across this blog looking for things to do in Southern California and have been catching up on your past posts...
I was wondering which program you specifically used and if you reccomend an app for others to use.
Also, are you still keeping up with running?
