Couch to 5K

I went for a run at six this morning. Well, when I say run, more of a walk with joggy interludes, really. But even so, I'm impressed with myself. I've been toying with the idea of trying the couch to 5k program for a while now, and this morning I finally took the plunge. Em very kindly lent me her ipod, complete with a podcast that goes with the program (good running music, plus a voice that tells you when to run and when to walk), and I found it all surprisingly enjoyable. And the virtuous feeling afterwards was also good. It seems like the first couple of weeks of the program will be pretty easy. I am not sure I'll manage to keep it up when it gets more challenging, mind you ... Though I do intend to give it a good shot.
