Looking to add beginner/intermediate runner friends! I am so excited to be almost a 10 minute mile runner. I spent a month doing elliptical training and its really paid off.

Good job! I started about a month and a week ago, training for the 5k, couldn't even run a mile straight on, now I can run 5 miles without stopping and brought my times down to 9:36 for the 3.1 just keep at it!3

That's awesome and really inspiring! Ive never ran before, a 5k seemed like the unreachable goal to me. I am seeing the very distant light at the end of the tunnel0 -
I used to run ALL the time, got up to 10 miles comfortably, but I lost my mojo so restarted c25k this week, have completed 2 runs and am back to loving running. I'll send you a friend request.3

I started running two weeks ago, (started on W3 of C25K, so now about to start W5). Hopefully will be able to do 5k in September.2
