I'll second that recommendation -- I did the C25k program this past spring, with my daughter! She is 12, and I was 42... it was a great way for us to spend time together, working on a common goal & being active. We both started from nothing, so to speak, as runners, and worked up to a 5k. It was a great break from the usual mother-daughter dynamic. (It's harder to argue when you're both gasping for air!) We've relaxed our training over the summer, but we still enjoy getting out when we can & will ramp back up this fall.
Congrats to you, btw!! A huge accomplishment! :) -c On Sun, Aug 14, 2011 at 2:23 PM, Drew <[email protected]> wrote: > Thanks all... > > I was at BMI of 31 in April, down to 26 now....
