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!

Week 5 - I think I am going to try it. My fill on friday kicked my a#% so I didn't do anthing but a long walk with the dog today.

Losing-I am so sorry you have had to limit your exercise. You have been a great motivator for me.

I did day one of week 5 again and will probably do it again! Yesterday I planned to run but didn't. It was 38 degrees and 10 to 20 mph winds. During the week I can run inside at my school but on the weekends I have no other alternative. I did get plenty of exercise in and hope I can get in a run today.

trystelle,

im still going to do a modified c25k. i just need to chill with the hard pounding/impact of the running right now.
