Couch to 5K

So, last December I had this crazy idea. I figured that since everyone around me was trying to work out or run a marathon (and I wasn't), that I would make a plan to run a 5K sometime in 2009. I even made it my New Year's Resolution.
So all year, I kept thinking, "Oh, I've got time. I'll start next week." Well, guess what, folks? It's October. And I gained just enough weight to make my clothes not all fit. It's terrible. So, I started the Couch to 5K plan last week, in hopes of doing the Jingle Bell run in December. I'm on week 2. I've got to say, I can tell a difference between last week and this week (I no longer want to die at 45 seconds, although at 90 seconds I really start to wonder about my sanity). So that's got to say something, right? So tomorrow I'll finish Week 2. Have no idea how I'm going to do Week 3 with the conference next week, but I'll figure it out.
And Dad, if you're reading this, start getting ready!!! Because it's my goal to jog most of the 5K.
