Day 206 - 8 weeks to a 5K

So I have been reading some more blogs lately and I came across one that my good friend Alex follows and its really good. It has been, in the recent future, mostly about an 8-week running program that works you up to 30 mins of running. Here name is Lis and you can read here blog here: Inchoate Debate. Reading her blog coupled with the fact that my buddy J just ran a 5k today I got inspired to do some damage!

The original version of my 101 list was actaully a 138 in 1001 list and I had to make some cuts, and the 5k got the cut along with some other things. Well I am not doing this list to be a corner-cutter so I have decided to add it, along with this obviously helping in the quest to lose 40lbs. Im sure this will help to get me into shape along with P90X which I have to fit in as well.



Anyway, Lis' blog is really entertaining! Check it out! Also, if you wish, the article can be viewed here: 8-Week Running Program
