My name is Laura. I am 30 years old and have two children. I am training for a 5K on September 27th 2015. I am in the walking stage trying to work my way to a jog/run. Since july 21 i jave walked 21.73 miles. My average pace is between 16-18 min miles. I really try to listen to my body and some times push to hard. I do have some health issues so i am extra careful. I have Chiari 1 malformation. I am hoping with more exercise i wont be so symptomatic.I open for any tips and advice. Thank you!
