Where are you all at? Have you ran your first 5k yet? How often and how far do you run now?

I am using the 10k trainer now to increase my distance, I ran 4.25 mi this morning! I haven't ran a 5k yet but I am planning to run a 5 mi race with my step-Dad in June.

I suck. I haven't ran in a month. I was doing 3 miles. I did a 5K in November. It wasn't a good experience because the race was not set up well. I am looking to buy a treadmill because I was running in the morning at 5, but I live in the country and running in the dark by myself was too scary.

I ran 4.1 miles yesterday but I have to run a 10K on March 17th, gulp. My stepdad is flying me to NJ to run with him, my sister, and my brother. I need to get on the ball. I need new shoes too. My Nikes are hurting my knees and hips.

My shoes saved my running life, for real. I am in love with my Asics. They are light enough and have awesome support. You have got to buy new shoes.

I've been slacking but I need to start again. Yesterday I signed up to do the Color Run 5k in Philly in July. It looks fun and I'm excited! It will be my first run.

Yeah. I think that I'm going to go to a running store and get fitted. I'm just waiting for our tax return.

Definitely go get fitted! I did and I ended up in a size 9 when I usually wear an 8 or 8 1/2. I bought Brooks Ravennas, they were the best for the shape of my feet and they have made a huge difference.

I just got the email for the Jersey color run in Aug.! I am so excited!

I was three weeks into the program and had to stop. Running on pavement was ruining my knees. They were hurting so bad!

I can't run outside too much. With it being winter anyway, I've stuck to my treadmill running. Once I am able to run outside more, I will attempt to keep the outdoor running to 2-3 times a week depending on my knees.

I am doing the Foam Fest run in Chicago come June and the Dirty Girl Mud Run in August up there in the TC.
