I just saw your comment on my blog abo...Hey there! I just saw your comment on my blog about running. I answered you there but I'll repost it here. And unfortunately, I don't always have good answers! lol Hope this helps a little bit.<br /><br />When I started running, I just started with 5k's. A friend of mine was turning 30 and wanted to start running. I found a picture of me after my first 5k run. I looked beat and red in the face. And probably felt as though I would die!<br /><br />I would run and walk. Run for as much as I can and walk for a while, then do it all again until I finished. Some people do C25K program. I didn't but I heard it works. <br /><br />Just start out slow and work your way up. When you feel like you can't do it anymore, you CAN! It's a lot of a mental game. You have to fight through your head telling you "NO" and "STOP". <br /><br />I wish I could give you better help. I just did it. Even though it was hard, I kept doing it. Once you do it one time, you know you can do it again. <br /><br />I know Marisa with Loser for Life and Kelly with Happy Texans are fairly newer runners and are doing great! They may be able to offer words of advice too. Good luck.Amandahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10155443976345011433noreply@blogger.com
