Calling All Couch Potatoes

TGIF! Cause it's been a hell of a week. Ya feel me? ...errr us? As a New Year's goal, we are challenging ourselves to run two 5ks and one 10k in 2015. To ensure we reach our goal, we decided to sign up for our first race. When searching for our first race of 2015 we remembered the wise words of Bey. "A diva is a female version of a hustla"- so we had no other choice than to pick the Diva Dash

Working out is hard so we're both using the Couch to 5K training program found here to make it a little easier. The program calls for nine weeks of training and if you've looked at a calendar recently you'd know we have less than nine weeks until the race. Soo we should probably start training...whoops.
We may have been a tad ambitious with selecting a race in March, but we'll try condensing some of the initial weeks together and let you know how it goes. (A brisk 5 min walk and 60 second jog for day one? We've got this) If all else fails, we can jog walk it. The effort is all that matters, right? We'll be channeling our inner Beyoncé- whether we are running or walking. We'll just make sure our walk is more of a sassy strut.
Who's with us? Comment below to share if you're running in the Diva Dash or what other races we should sign up for this year.
