was curious to see if i *could* do it (plus i wanted to play around some with my nike+ gizmo Clowning around

)...

today was my "off" day, so i made sure to just walk it out....did it just under 52minutes (pretty pokey, i know Blush

) played around too with the incline settings (changed it up every 5minutes).

pretty pleased to know that if i had to, i could do it. Smile

Now to keep plugging along so that someday, i can actually *run* the distance! lol

	Start walking it, then gradually run a little, then a little more, then a little more...soon enough you will be running it all...then 4 miles, 5 miles.... k

	Congrats! That's a great confidence booster, isn't it? Now... go find a 5K race that's a few weeks out from when you hope to finish the c25K program... *and sign up for it!* You'll know that if it's too much you can always walk it... so there's no excuse not to try!
