Plan

 I am doing a 9 week plan called "Couch to 5K."  It is three days a week for about thirty minutes each of those days.  it starts out slow and slowly works up to being able to run 5 kilometers (3.1 miles).  The running plans says if I get to overwhelmed with the workout time, I can always repeat weeks.  I got an app on my phone, C25K, to help me keep track of how long to run and walk for.
I decided to do this because I wanted to take on a new project.  Also, I have always felt like I was born to be a runner, and that if I was a runner I would be good at it.  So I finally decided just to do it!
