Your Couch-to-5K Training Plan
Every time you reach a goal, no matter how big or small, do something to celebrate, which will motivate you to keep going. Think about nonfood-related activities and create a list of possible rewards, such as getting a pedicure or buying new music.
While you should definitely reward yourself after the 5K, pick little milestones along the way—finishing the first week of training, for instance—and acknowledge your accomplishment.
