    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.
