As I may have mentioned once or twice, I had a baby in October. In December, I eased back into running by doing the Couch to 5K program. The goal: To train for and run a 5K (3.1 miles) in about two months.
Well, it's been two months, and...
I did it!
Over the weekend, I ran a full 5K in 30:02... not quite my personal best of 20:46 from my high school and college cross-country days, but I'll take it!
Jill Dobson looks EXACTLY like this when running |
All the running, along with lots of baby-feeding,* has helped put a big dent in the baby weight.
Next up: More running, a new 'do, and some new threads... and I do NOT mean Mom Jeans!
*Am I immature because I'm too shy to say "breast-feeding?" Why doesn't anyone say "nursing" anymore? Move over, Justin Timberlake... I'm bringing nursing back!
So funny, Jill!! I am inspired to do a 5K! I will check out the Couch to 5K info. I am hoping to get back to my Miss Michigan days sometime this year!! LOL!! Great job!!
