Hi everyone. I am in my second week of a not-quite-a c25k... I am currently in treatment for breast cancer, totally out of shape and obese. Which is exactly why I am back on MFP website and seeking a workout I can live with. I have always wanted to be a runner (I used to dream about it) but when I tried the traditional c25k about a year ago, it moved too quickly for me. So, I found a training program that takes 6 MONTHS !! to work up to a 5K but I feel like it is something I can do without destroying my body and my doctor approved it. Can I still be a part of this group? My first month is nothing but walking but I loved my first week! All of you who are posting your wonderful results gives me so much encouragement. I know I will do this. Oh, and my goal is to run a 5K for my 60 birthday in June!
