Hi again,
I hope everyone is doing alright on this Sunday morning. I have a quick question for you runners out there. Is it possible to train for a 5k from doing 30 mins of cardio 2X per week to being ready to run in a 5k in slightly over a month?

Also does anyone know a place to find some good training programs?

Thanks

I did this, it was really pretty easy.

I'm going to give this a try. I jog for my cardio, but I seem to always be disappointed in myself because I feel like I should have been able to do more. Hopefully with this plan, I'll feel better because I'll be following the plan so maybe I won't try to do more than I'm capable of.

You should have no problem with it at all. I really enjoyed it.
