For the record, here's a link to that first run/walk. Man, look at that blazing fast pace!!!

I did the couch to 5k for a few weeks before I actually started recording my "runs". So the best guess I have is that I started somewhere in August 2012. My first recorded run that I have is from September 16th where I ran 2.6 miles at a 12:51 pace. I know that the couch to 5k the weeks before that were all slower though.

I remember one day my wife and I went to my daughter's school and back, which is pretty close to 2.8 miles and it took us 43 minutes.

It is pretty fun to look back and see how much progress is made with all of this hard work!
