First, how have you been doing on your Couch to 5k program? I’ve been walking 20 minutes every day at lunch. The 260 minute total was the minimum you should have walked in Month 1/Phase I of this more conservative C25K program. I found this program over at Beginner Triathlete. The second month is detailed below. There’s more walking and a little bit of running. This is very doable for a “big” person.
Second,are you subscribed to Fat 2 Fit Radio? Fat 2 Fit Radio is the really the continuation of the Fat Guy Radio show. Jeff Ainslie and I discuss weight loss, diet, fitness and exercise topics every week. We also take a look at news articles that deal with these subjects as well. Take a listen and see if this fills a gap in your life.
Third, is your brain working the best it can? Mine isn’t. Over the next 12 weeks or so I’m going to be posting about the new book Brain Rules. See the post previous to this one for more information.
Here’s a table of the second month’s schedule:

That’s going to do it for now. Get walking and running and I’ll talk at you again in a month or so for the Couch to 5k Update. Be safe and be healthy.
