Hi everyone,

this is our fifth week in the Couch to 5K program. This is designed to be a 9 week program, but you can repeat weeks (as I will be doing) until you are comfortable moving on. However, you are not supposed to skip weeks.

It has been strongly suggested by trainers and runners alike to NOT run on consecutive days.

More information can be found here: Cool Running :: The Couch-to-5K Running Plan

Attached are the first thru fifth weeks in detail

Anyone is free to join, no matter where we are!!

This is the place to check in and support with each other and see how it is going.

What week are you doing?

How is it going for you? Is it too difficult / too easy?

Any comments??

Good luck everyone!

Comeon 4.30!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

hey guys,

due to medical necessity, I need to stop running for awhile.

I will keep up the couch to 5K program, but with a brisk walk instead of a run.

**sigh**

ahhh that sucks

keep walking though.

a guy on here lost 100 in 4 months and all he was doing was walking 4mph for 50 mins a day 6 a week.

hey come swim with me too!

I'd love to swim, but it ruins my pedi.

Oh My Gosh Losing...I'm soooo sorry. I hope you can start back soon. I was going to mention swimming though. It burns a ton of calories and is not at all jarring to the body...

Oh yeah, forgot about that, thats a bummer!

So will you be incorporating different exercises or just walking for now? Can you do c25K on the elliptical?
