I’m training for my first ever 5K road race. Yesterday, I began Week 3 Day 1 following the Couch-to-5K program.
Here’s what I did -
5 minute warm-up walk
90 seconds running
90 seconds walking
3 minutes running
3 minutes walking
90 seconds running
90 seconds walking
3 minutes running
3 minutes running
It felt good to get back to my routine after a week off for the holidays. Today, I’m going to do some strength training for my arms and back – but I really feel like doing some running, too. I might do the strength training in the morning, and then do my running when I take my daughter to gymnastics this evening.

How do you keep track of timing? In my experience the 90 second walk/90 second run is the hardest to time when you’re actually training. What’s your trick?
Good job on the weight loss! Keep it up and you will feel great.
That’s a pretty strict running routine. Look’s like it should help you get to where you want to be.
Good job with the training!
