I'm just stubborn enough to do it

When I told my husband late one night that I wanted to run a Triathlon by the time I was 40 he laughed at me and told me I was crazy, then rolled over and went to sleep. A week passed when I approached the subject again. He laughed again. Then he caught me reading forums online about training for Triathlons, next I talked about starting the Couch to 5K program, and slowly he realized that I am serious about this.

This was all two weeks ago.

And now I'm telling everyone that I want to do this. That I am going to do this. And if I fail at doing it, I expect people to shame me.

Last week I started the Couch to 5K program, slightly modified. As I walk everywhere to begin with I skipped Month 1 and moved onto Month 2, where you introduce the running. It's hard, but I'm enjoying it.
