I have never been a runner. I can sprint impressively, but quickly run out of steam. I could walk forever, but not run, not even jog for any length of time.

A co-worker told me about the Couch to 5k, which is a nine week training program that is supposed to help people who can't run build up very gradually to being able to run a 5k (3 miles)

I'm proud of you too - you sound so much happier and more confident! Maybe I'll try this Couch to 5k thing over the summer. I've been wishing I could run at least a mile without stopping (even half a mile). Also, being able to eat as much as I want is one of my main reasons for exercising at all. (The other is not dying young.) But don't mention Girl Scout cookies to me - I haven't been working out at all and I have 5 boxes of Samoas and I've been so good, I've only eaten 2 cookies.

Great, you said it and now I have to go eat more cookies.
