One month into it!

Hooray!  I'm well into my fifth week of the C25K plan and doing a different strength workout each week.  A couple weeks ago I bought pretty new running shoes, a New Balance pair from Naperville Running Company.  They're doing a lot better than my old Adidas shoes, even though I found out the hard way that a 9-mile walk may not be the wisest choice for the 3rd day of wearing new shoes (pics and details at my tumblr page).

Since it's been a few weeks, here are the strength workouts I've done up to this point:

And if you live around Chicago or Naperville, there are all sorts of fun, free fitness activities on Saturday mornings:
  • In Millennium Park, there are Tai Chi, Yoga, Pilates, and Dance Aerobics from 7-10 am (schedule and info here or here) through September 11 on the Great Lawn
  • On the North Avenue Beach, Flirty Girl Fitness offers Yogalates from 10-11 am (info here) throughout the rest of July and August
  • Also, lululemon athletica in Naperville has yoga at 9 am (Tweet here)
Well that's about it for me tonight, I wish you all the best in your fitness endeavors!
