10k??

This is an 8 week training program for running a 10k (6.2 miles). A good friend has talked me into running one on June 25th. Depending on some scheduling issues, Mike and I are thinking this would be a good way to get back into shape. I have only ever run 4 miles at the most so I am feeling a little scared about it. I need support and to hold myself accountable so that I won't back out. Hence, putting it on the blog. :) This starts May 1st and I will be using Sunday as a rest day instead of Monday.
