Welcome, bloggers and other GIPC'ers working on the 5k wellness challenge!

This blog is for anyone interested in increasing their wellness, especially those who want to take on the 5k challenge. You define the nature of that challenge -- run, jog, walk. Maybe your goal is to jog 1 mile rather than 3 , or simply to walk regularly. That's great, too. Anything you do that gets you off the couch! (Remember to check with your physician before undertaking any new exercise.)

Check in here for support and join the conversation. There will be a generic item posted every day so that you can post comments on topics of interest related to the challenge. Questions, comments, tips, exciting discoveries or achievements? Record them here for community response. Looking for a walking or jogging partner? Post it.

If you are on the home page, click on the notation "x Comments" to go to a page where you can post your item. If you click on the posting for the day as listed on the Archive on the right side of the page, a Comment box will show automatically, as will all the comments previously made.

Let's take ourselves out for a spin and see what we can do!

    This comment is a demo of posting a comment anonymously, which is an option. I always post by selecting "Name/URL" from the pull-down menu below and typing in my name. You can then preview the comment before posting and review, edit, cancel or publish, as desired.

    Cold run today. I prefer to get out early before the wind kicks up, but didn't get out until late in the morning. The good news is that I carefully mapped my route on www.mapmywalk.com and discovered that my two-mile course is actually 2.2 miles. Hey - every little bit counts!!
