After 13 marathons I've fallen into a 'fun and fitness' routine that includes a lot less running and more miles on a recumbent exercise bike. It's a low cost way to read or watch TV while complimenting running outside. I'm enjoying the book 'Long Way Down' while pedalling to keep in shape for hockey.

Keep healthy out there.

I know that it is a long road ahead, but I'm really motivated to see this program through to the end. Thanks, I'm really happy with the results.

I just started the Couch to 5k program yesterday, also using RunKeeper to help make it a little more bearable. Glad to find other folks like me looking to get back into shape!

The beginning is always very tough. It gets easier the more you run, you'll see. It won't take you long for you to run 5-8K if you persist. Keep in mind the first 1-2 miles (2-3K) of every run are the most painful as your muscles will start to loosen up after that. It takes 10-15 minutes of warmup before feeling really good during your run (and you will). I'm currently training for my 1st marathon and it happens to me for every run ;)<br>Keep up the good work!
