    I complete c25k a few months ago. Life became crazy, I got lazy. So this week I started c210k. I started with week 2. Tomorrow I will hopefully get out of bed and do week 2 DAY 3. My legs are killing me. LOL

    I have been running 5K for a couple of months now, still using the NHS Direct podcast. Thinking I ought to move on I decided to try a Bridge to 10K app on my Blackberry. I needn't have bothered. Starting at at slower pace than I was used to I easily ran to the end of the time the app alloted. By this time I had run the 10K but was now quite a way from home. Rather than sit on the bus in a pool of sweat I thought I might as well run until I couldn't carry on and walk the rest. I soon realised I had run over 8.5 miles so decided to carry on until 10 miles. I completed the 10 miles in 2 hours giving an average speed of 5 mph. I've never run so far in my life and it's all down to the C25K programme and Laura's ( the NHS virtual coach) encouragement.

    Keep it up, everyone!

    Hey all. New to the group. Just finished w3d1. I hate running and always have. When I saw my first 3 minute run I thought there was no way! Not only did I manage to do it, I finished the day without a problem and actually ran a little extra just for fun. Such a crazy cool feeling to actually enjoy this process. I love this app. Trying to recruit all the non runners to try it out. Nervous for future runs but staying positive. :-)
  • Greetings. Did W1D1 today. Been "planning" to start for a few weeks. Today I just up and did it. Wasn't easy, but wasn't so bad either. Appreciate the encouragement in this board.

Can any tell me how much they have lost doing the c210k on a normal 1500 cal diet and how long it took to get there
