Couch to 5k

I looked forward to my run all day today, I wish I wasn't so lazy in the mornings and could wake up early and run first thing I can imagine that I would feel so good throughout the day. It just doesn't happen for me, as much as I wish I was I am just not a morning person. So, today was Day 2 of my Week 3 training. I got off my treadmill today a little discouraged, but I did FINISH! So sad but the 3 minute interval just literally kicks my ass. The first rep got difficult around the 2 minute mark and the last rep got difficult at the 90 sec mark. One encouraging thing is how easy the 90 second run is. I remember when I struggled with that! I'm really hoping 3 minutes will be like that soon, but at the same time it just seems like a huge jump. I am really contemplative during my last recovery as to repeat week 3 or just move on to week 4 since I am finishing. I don't know how hard it's supposed to be to repeat a week? I did find a website today created as a recourse for other crazy runner to be's like myself. Consistent advise from people who have finished the 5k said as long as your finishing to keep going with the weeks. I am just determined to do this thoroughly, I have never been so committed as I am to this. So, I will happily repeat weeks if need be. We'll see. Saturday or Sunday I will do the last day of week 3 and make a decision at that point.

BTW I really want some new running shoes. I didn't want to go out and buy myself all the running gear until I proved to myself I was committed. At mid week 2 I bought a zune, I don't know how I went this long without one. (ahahaha) So, I think I'm ready for some new shoes. I'd say I earned them. There's no not finishing this for me, it's just not an option.
