Couch to 5K

The last three days have been pretty busy, and I have been unable to run since Tuesday! :(
But on Wednesday night I met my youth group at Roosters for wings night, and I explained to them what I was doing to prepare for the Military next year. My youth pastor told me about an app I could buy called "Couch to 5K Tracker" that slowly builds you up to running x amount of miles in just a few months.
And tonight, I get to try it for the first time!
I go to the app, and it says - 'Week 1, Workout 1' and gives a description of what I'll be running tonight which is - "Brisk 5 minute warmup walk. Then alternate 60 seconds of jogging and 90 seconds of walking for a total of 20 minutes. Finish with a five minute cooldown."
Sounds easy enough :)

The run was great! Even though it is quite different from running 11 minutes to running 30. This is a great App! :)
