    It is an awesome program isn't it? I did W1R3 tonight. I am going to rest Friday and Saturday then start W2R1 on Sunday. Please feel free to friend me. I would love to chat with people that are at around the same stage as me. I have completed this program a few years back so I know I can do it.

    I will send you a friend request

    Hi Ladies, sounds like you are all a week or so ahead of me, I did Wk2, R1 last night. I am looking forward to being able to run for more than a couple of minutes at a time. Great to hear so many of you say C25Kworks! Will keep on it. :-) I have been trying to run fairly fast & get out of breath. Should I slow down the speed and focus on getting the breathing right?

    I'm using Zombies 5K... does that count? I'm on week 3, day 2 and holy moly - it's always really rewarding to see a jump in distance or time and think, "wtf I can't do that"... only to find out that you CAN do it B)

    Such a great app to get out there running. After a few weeks I find you can start pushing yourself a bit more. I liked continuing the cycles beyond the cool down as I generally had not gone 5K by the end. Also love the Zombie app, helps to build up that speed with interval running.

    I did weeks 1-4 from mid-Jan to mid-Feb, then I got a gym membership and started going to classes as I found them more fun. I now have no time for running, which is a bit sad as if I kept it up I should (in theory) be running 5k easily now.

    Ah well. Just makes my 10k run in May a bit more interesting ;)
