me running?

I, like most people in America want to lose some weight. I'm finally down a few pounds below my pre-pregnancy weight! However, I would like to lose more. I was a size 4 when I got married...eight years and 2 kids later... well I'm not a size 4 anymore. I would like to be in a size 6 or 8. Enter "The Running Group". There is a lady at my church that runs all the time and she is starting a running group. It's great for beginners like me because we will be starting off really slow. And by slow I mean the first week we are walking 11 minutes running 1. The goal is that at the end of 6 months we will all run a 5-K. I'm excited and a little nervous not only about how I will hold up but how well my boys will do in the jogging stroller for 45 minutes streight. Oh did I menton that I will be pushing both boys? This should be a great workout! Wish me luck!
