Welcome!! Glad youre getting some new shoes...they really help! How old are your kiddos? I'm not sure if we have anyone else that early in the program but take heart in the fact people are ahead of you so you know its doable and theres people who have done it questions I'm on the last week but it really feels like just last week I started lol.

Thanks! I'm looking at this as a challenge for me. There's a 5K near me in mid-June that I'm half interested in (not sure how ready I'll be by then) and a 5K in September that I do want to sign up for. I just went and played in my training log. I'm not quite sure if I've done it right, but some of my info is in there. My dear husband is taking me shopping when he gets back from work for my late Mother's Day gift: a new pair of running shoes. He's really supportive of me getting back into running. Something for me! (My son had his fourth birthday last month and my daughter is coming up on 14 months at the end of this month. I've done yoga, but almost no running since I've been a Mom.)

WohooooO! I have new shoes! I went to The Running Room, had a gait analysis done, tried a few pairs in different brands and brought home a pair of Asics Gel 1130. http://www.shop.runningroom.com/product_info.php?manufacturers_id=&products_id=3274 They are very comfy! I've got 30 days to return them if I haven't worn them outside so I'll wear them in my house a bit first. But of course now I can't wait to go out for a run.
