First run!

Okai first of all my scincere apology I didn't start yesterday like I promised , but I just ran the agreed route .

1. I am not as tired as I though I'd be.
2. I've done the course in approx 17 mins.
3. I've done about 40 situps.
4. I've done about 30 push ups.
5. I'll do it again.

So I guess I got some decesions I got to make..

1. I'll run for 3 month and if I don't see results I'll quit.
2. I'll run Sundays , Tuesdays and Thursdays (maybe more).
3. I'll quit takeaways and an sweet chocoates.

Maybe I should get any of these..

Introduction!

Okai so I decided to take up running.

I am Mohamed from London and I weight around the 100kg but I decided to take up running, so like any self respected geek I will research it and make a plan what is the best way to accomplish my targets which are not yet fully set yet!

So this is what I am going to research

1. Targets : weekly / daily / monthly ?
   
2. Equipment what works what doesn't ?
3. Running plans ? by distance by time ?
4. when could I run / how often could I run ?
5. when to start ? 28th June 2008.

Thats what i have so far!
