On a Break :(

So it looks like I won't be running for a while. I'm extremely sad about it and I hope my doctor can help me find a way to be able to run again. I have been having some pretty severe knee pain, and have been hoping the exercise would help. Well, it hasn't helped, and it has only gotten worse. So instead of risking the health of my joints long-term, I have decided to take a, hopefully, short-term break from the couch to 5K program.

Now I just have to make sure I get my exercise in other ways. Good thing I have a doggie to motivate me to take long walks! And hopefully I'll be able to post something soon about my running!

Week 4...all over again

So I think I will be doing week 4 a second time. I did another workout of week 4 tonight because i tried the first week 5 workout and I just couldn't do it. I didn't quite finish the end of the workout i did tonight. I did almost everything. I just couldn't make it through the last 5 minute run. But i still feel great and I know I got a great workout. I will be doing another week 4 workout on Friday and I'll go from there. I am getting worried that I will just not be able to finish this program. Is it possible that I'm just not cut out for running? Well, I'm going to keep trying and I guess we'll find out!
