Down 10 lbs since Dec. 4. Got back on Keto diet starting Monday. Dropped 4 lbs this week. Haven't exercised all week tho. Getting back on track Monday.

Starting weight: 260
Current weight: 250
Goal weight: 199 by September 13, 2018 (my 37th birthday).

Donatello, looks like you're on keto as well. Game recognize game.

I over-ate and over-drank just a smidge on a recent trip to Seattle/Portland, but have been back in the saddle with Keto since.

Starting weight: 260
Current weight: 246.8
Goal: 199 by 9/13/2018 (my 37th birthday)

Last night I was asked to run a 5k on May 19th. I was feeling froggy so I said yes. I've never ran a 5k and have not gone for a run in a long time. Any training tips?

I'm thinking of just doing the C25K (couch to 5k) program, starting at week 1.

Yeah that should be fine to get you started. I used similar programs for my first tri and half marathon.

Best advice I have to give is to always leave something in the tank. It sucks to run until exhaustion and it isn't motivating for me. But it's extremely motivating for me to feel like I could have kept going, and it keeps me excited for my next run bc I want to push myself a bit further than last time.

Also, ive noticed that a lot of programs will say "you should be at conversation pace" meaning you can comfortably talk and run. I've found this to be very difficult when I first started because even a light jog got me winded. So dont be discouraged by that.

So why not do an obstacle course and diving

But seriously I've always used a linear approach to running, just adding .1 per day.
