Day 1 of C25K

So I started C25K today, the treadmill version. I didn't make it through the whole 30 mins! I did my 5 min warm up walk, then followed the suggested run/walk up until about 18:30 when I finished my last run. After that I did my 5 minute cool down walk. I ended up doing a little over 1.5 miles and about 23 mins. On one hand, I feel like I've let myself down b/c I didn't finish but on the other hand I did pretty good considering I am not a runner whatsoever!

For all of you who are into this program... How hard was day one for you? Any other stories similar to mine out there?

    It is not easy but I found that the free pod casts helps me. I don't have to time myself and I can't just stop early. The music also keeps me going. No matter what, getting started and maintaining is the biggest victory, so today you did great but tomorrow you will do even better.
