New workout...

My knees and shins were hurting me bad all day yesterday...which leads me to believe that I've been running on them too hard. I don't blame them. Trying to support a whole lotta fat while jogging would be tough. So after researching, I've decided to try the Couch to 5k Program. Its a program designed to get you off your butt and running a 5k in 9 weeks. And honestly...its doable. I did the first workout last night and it was fantastic. Seriously I'm not hurting nearly as much today. So I'm taking it "easy" so to speak and following this plan now. It's not going to help me with my 5k coming up in a couple weeks...but it will help me long term. And I truly think I'll be just fine with that one too. I'm happy its not a hardcore race and if I do have to walk, it will be okay.
It does, however, make me wonder how this will affect my weight loss. Hopefully things will be good and I'll keep dropping.
