Two Steps Forward Three Steps Back

Alex is getting to grips with the calorie counter and, slowly but surely, is shifting the weight to lose 30lbs before he turns 30. After his delayed success at completing week five of the Couch to 5k, he's buoyed going into week six. But a sudden injury threatens to stop him in his tracks.
