Getting in Shape

I'm in terrible shape. I weigh too much and I don't exercise at all. It's hiking season and I'm ready to get out in the woods and up in the mountains but I know I'll be huffing and puffing. So I'm publicly pledging to get in shape. In fact I'm publicly pledging to do the following:

1) Start and Complete the Couch to 5K Plan. I'm going to workout on a M,W,F schedule and will start on 6/8. (the week of 6/14 will be a vacation week but I will walk or hike at least 30 minutes every day...)
2) Sign up for a 5K race - Race for Literacy (August 15) or Kitsap County Fair run (August 29) or Blackberry Festival (September 5) or MIA/POW Remembrance run (September 12th). Or maybe more than 1. I'll decide on at least one by July 15th.
3) Bike ride in Tour de Kitsap - they have a 15mile Family ride; I'm pretty sure I can do that. (July 26th).

Lastly I'm publicly pledging to report back each week on this blog on my progress. Anyone want to join with me for any of these events?

Do you still want to play tennis with me this summer? (It's ok if you don't, I am pretty awful.)
