Well, I've grown tired of being overweight and miss my prior fitness level. I currently sit here at 6'3" and weighed 264lbs this morning at the Y. Prior to 2012 I was in great shape and had completed two half-marathons but things have gone downhill since then. So this morning I headed down to the Y to start the couch to 5K. I don't really have an urge to run anymore races, just want to improve my fitness and be around as long as possible for my family. Hoping that if I document this journey here that I will have some sort of accountability and can measure my progress in a way that both motivates and informs. My immediate goal is to work this next year and get to 225 lbs for Christmas 2017. There will be diet changes as well as my eating habits are certainly not good. So anyways, day 1 of the program is completed and I did not have too terrible of a time doing the run/walk pattern set up, it's pretty easy this week at run for 1 minute walk for 1.5 minutes and this cycle is done for 20 minutes with 5 minute warm up and cool down periods to begin and end.
