livvsmum, you go girlfriend!!!

So I managed to adjust to the gross heat & humidity & I finally feel ready for my 5k on Sunday :-) How's everyone else doing??

Fantastic time girl!!!!!! You are so ready!!!!!

I finished C25K last week and then on Saturday I ran 5K around my house first time in 37 minutes. Was very proud and then yesterday I ran another 5K around my town in 36:47 so improved a little. I will do a 5K tomorrow also but I am very proud of my time at this point. I was hoping for 45 minutes when I first started running so this is huge for me.

Congratulations!!

I got my mile down to 12:34 minutes! Did 3 miles in 40:04 on Mother's Day. Finished a 5k on Sunday in 42:35- but when I track it on my nike run app it said The run was actually 3.24 miles, not 3.1?

Doing another 5k on Sunday, hoping for a better time!

Great job!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I finished my first 5k today in 35 minutes, no walking. It was totally amazing given that this time last year I could barely walk a block, let alone run 3.1 miles! On to 10k and a 1/2 marathon next!! :-) Here are a couple pics of me & my daughters who ran with me (the 2 older ones)

That's so awesome!!!! Congrats!!!!!!!! You look fantastic!!! You must be so proud!!!!!

5K run this morning in 34:31 my best time yet!

You guys inspire me and give me hope! I tried adding slow jogging to my walk today for the first time, alternating in interval of two blocks jogging one block walking. I am six weeks out from surgery and 250 pounds, and tonight I can feel it in my knees and thighs--but I really want to be able to run the whole 5K distance. A few years ago I did a walking 5K and even though I have been doing a lot of walking I came in dead last. I was okay with it, somebody has to be left, but I really want to be able to accomplish first jogging in entire mile, and then the whole 5K. how often do you guys run, every day or just 3 to 4 times a week? is it better to alternate or getting the groove of doing every day? Inquiring immature minds need to know!

I put the couch to 5K app on my phone and followed it for 8 weeks. It does intervals of walking/jogging. You can repeat the days or weeks if you need to. Best of luck to you!!!!
