    I think I'm gonna give this a try, my biking will have to be stationary bike though. I'm not much of a cyclist, but would love to get a road bike. I'm a runner that has lost motivation and endurance. Thank you! I will start Monday, option 1 to start out slow

    Really proud that you are giving it a go! Stationery bike is FINE!!! This might be the motivation to get you back as a runner - I have just gone through the same issue a few weeks back so I completely understand!

    Alright, I'm probably crazy for this since I just very recently started a little jogging and haven't done biking of any kind in a long time... but I am going to commit to option 1 and see what I can do.

    I want to try this, but I have no idea which option to pick. For the cycling, I ride to work usually 3 days a week now, so the only option that would be a challenge is option 3, but there is no way I can do option 3 for the running. I'm new to running and still working on getting through Couch to 5K! Can I mix them up?? Can I go for option 1 for the running and option 3 for the cycling? So, 10km for running and 100km for riding? I think that's the only way it would be a challenge for me.

    Give option 3 a go, see how you feel and you might end up doing the running as an occasional run with some walking. if you manage 100km on a bike and even 20km running and walking that's really something to be proud of !!

    I will try option 3. I'm not overly confident here, but... like you said... if I can manage the biking part and at least part of the running that would be good. Starting tomorrow!!! :)

    Did Couch to 5K Week 4 Day 3. Wanted to come back and log it. Feels good to have knocked at least something off of the running part!

    Option 1

    Run/Walk goal 10k - 3k done
    Cycle goal 25k - 0 done

    recently lost my love of the sport (running), trying to get my passion and endurance back. The kids only have 1 week left of soccer, then I can concentrate more on my own fitness. Hoping to hit the gym tomorrow night to get some cycling in.
