Well Im still on the couch, having read through the Couch to 5k running plan. Thought I would document it here so that Im accountable. Because I know there will be games. I know it will be one of the hardest things Ive had to go through.
Exercise and dealing with my body was always the hardest thing for me. Im highly spiritual and alot of the time Im exhausted from the work I do and my circumstances.
So Im going to get all my moans out here.
Im 49, overweight, and have alot of joint pain. Im perimenopausal and suffer alot of the symptoms of that. One of them being anxiety, so exercise feels at times like it recreates those symptoms, so Im going to have to work mentally on that.
Theres a great fan page on facebook for people doing this program so its another way for me to be accountable. I will check in there and here.
I will do the run at night cause Im not a morning person and I basically have to make sure I get a day of work done, and then let it all go at night, for a run. Hoping it relieves the stress of the day and not set me up for alot of endorphines at night and keeping me awake.
I take the dog for a walk everynight so his walks might have to be a bit shorter for the time being.
Its a 9 week plan and I will repeat weeks if I need to, to feel accomplished.
Wish me luck. Im going to need it.
