sarahsweightloss asked: Any tips on how to get started running? I'm starting the couch to 5k plan soon, but any other tips would be greatly appreciated!

I get this question a lot. Here’s how I went from wheezing my way through a 5K to running half-marathons and preparing for my first marathon! (I am also linking to this question in my sidebar, since I get it so often.)

About Me

Foodbuzz

After seven years (and probably seven million calories) of living in D.C., I moved to NYC in August 2008. After a few months of eating my way through the city, I realized this had to stop and nipped my temptations in the bud. Here's the story of how a girl lost 50 pounds in the most tempting city known to woman. My next big challenge? The Chicago Marathon. 10.10.10.
