[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I am 43F, 180#, 5’8” and I ran cross country in HS and college. I stopped running regularly in my mid-20s. I started running last March to get out of the house during shutdown. I used a Couch to 5k app and completed it in about a month. My normal run 4-5 days a week is 2.5-3 miles. Once a week I have been doing 4.5-5 miles. I got to 5 miles in about 8 weeks. When I started I could not run a half mile without stopping. Remember to take rest days - don’t run 7 days a week. Remember to stretch! Maybe get a shoe fitting at a running store. I think you can get to 6 miles by May if you work at your long runs once a week and don’t worry how fast you are going. [/quote] Also - I weighed 193 last year when I started running. I am 179 and down two pants sizes. You can do this OP! [/quote]
