Marching Into Fitness: 5K Training


Since it's "Marching Into Fitness" month here, I thought I'd throw out a little running tidbit. I'm thinking that I'll start my official 5K training on April 1st. No foolin'! I have a 5K Fitness Walk on the Sunday prior so what a great time to start! I plan on running in the meantime, but just at random, with no set schedule.

I know some of you may think that running's not for you. But if you've never tried it, now's a great time! If you need a little encouragement, start with reading John "The Penguin" Bingham's The Courage To Start: A Guide To Running for Your Life. I found it to be incredibly inspiring...and hilarious! His line about wanting to be a runner and getting as far as the driveway and about dying with gasps of air was what happens to a lot of us. We have the motivation to want to be a runner but building up to actually being a runner...takes time and patience. Starting off too fast is the best way to kill your love of running! :)

So gear up and read up! Here's a link to the Couch Potato to 5K guide. It's the plan that I'm choosing to follow.

Who knows...you might find out that running is a great way to clear your head, relax and get in that much-needed exercise time! You can read about my first run here.

Coupon Geek's Giveaways: Hydration Waistpack


***Sorry but this giveaway has ended. There will be another one next Tuesday!***

March's theme for giveaways is "Marching Into Fitness."

This week's giveaway is for a Nathan's brand hydration waistpack!

I ordered one of these to help me during my 5K training. When it arrived, I loved it so much that I ordered another one for a giveaway prize.

These are not just for runners/walkers. Think about all the times this could be useful: while working out, while gardening, a day at the park, a day at the zoo...any outing! The bottle is securely held in the waistpack making your hands free!

I guarantee you'll love it! It's a high-quality waistpack that normally retails for at least $26.

Click here for the rules on how to enter.

This giveaway will end Friday, March 6th at Noon CST.

Good Luck!
