So I just downloaded an android app and I am going to start this program tomorrow, I just have to get over the idea that everyone will be staring at the big girl running at the Y! Wish me luck.

Just finished this program yesterday. I ran a 5k thanksgiving morning! Icpromise if you stick with it you can do it!!! This is coming from a girl who mever ran a day in her life and couldnt even walk a 5k much less run. I pushed myself. U gotta vary it up. Sometimes I ran in gym or in garage on treadmill but also outside. I liked the outdoors cause it felt different and made run go by quick. Running has changed my body and I'm gone stick with it. Lost 12lbs and went down dress size with c25k

So I did w1d1 today and then my normal circiut on the weight machienes, all I can say is ouch. My droid died so I did it without music and without that cool app that tells me when to walk and when to run. I did ok, it was a challenge, but I still did it. I thought I'd do better, I can go all out on the elliptical for an hour but running for 60 seconds about killed me. Hopefully this will help me lose some more weight, i'm very close to onederland and I just can't seem to get there so hopefully this will help. I'm going to do my next workout Sat. Morning. Good luck all.

I posted back in September that I started C25K but I couldn't get through W1D1.

I re-started it last week and I am so proud to say that I did so well. I am so pumped.

Today I did wk 2 day 1 and I am so proud of myself. It just takes a little pushing and motivating yourself.

I'm doing it on my treadmill and I am just elated with myself. I hope I keep it up .

I would love to sign up for a future 5k but I'm gonna give myself some time .

Hi all! I started C25K last summer, and made it to week 8 (though it took me longer than 8 weeks to get there), then I got really busy (I got married) and slacked off a bit. I recently signed up for a 5K and started working through the weeks again -- next up is W5D3. The 5K is nearly 8 weeks away, so I'm feeling pretty confident that I'll be ready... I guess we'll see!
