    Totally not off-topic! Congrats! There's nothing better than finding, as I call it, your "energizer bunny" pace. The one where you can keep going steadily until you just don't want to, without your legs or your lungs yelling at you first. Happy day!

    Marni, of course you can do this. I think a lot of what determines whether or not we can do something takes place between our ears. If you think you can do a 5K then you can. I'm not implying that just by thinking it you can suddenly & miraculously do it. Of course you have to train and prepare, but if you do those things you will run 5K. No doubt.
    I used the Couch to 5K (C25k) plan to train and build up to running. It was great. I was just under 200 lbs.

    So keep going and you will do it. I have full confidence in you.
