Background: (boring stuff)
So about January 4th I started off at 282 lbs. Started a weight loss competition at work that after 4 weeks I stopped particpating. Somewhere between then and last month I was at 276. Fast forward some, I've been working on the demolition and rebuilding of my shed for the last 4 weeks and I stepped on the scale only to find I was down to 268 lbs. Shocked I was actually losing weight and clothes were starting to fit better. Figures though because I was eating less and working outside more. After bringing it up a few weeks ago I was inspired to get prepared for the Warrior Dash so I'm back in the gym and eating better.
Today is Day 1 of training. I've completed Day 1 of Couch to 5k. Which as you may know is a 3 day a week, 9 week interval training program to get you trained to jog/run a full 5k event. I figure I have about 20+ weeks to get ready for the Warrior Dash so Couch to 5k is a good stepping stone to get ready for it.
I'm going to use this thread to keep things current and up to date.
Good luck to anyone else training for Warrior Dash.
