    What is c25k?

    It is a running program for those that don't like running or have been out of the running program for a while. It trains you to run a 5k and it's a 9week program and it could take people longer or shorter to complete the program depnding on your running level. Me I hate to run and this program has made me not hate running. Check it out. I downloaded it on my itouch for $2.99 and you can add the GPS function for $1.00. it's worth checking out.

    You can also go to C25K.com to get the program times and then, in case you don't have an iPod (like me), you can search around and download free MP3s that have the timing prompts in them to tell you when to walk or run. It's a really good program that eases you into running using manageable intervals. Well... manageable until week 5 where we jump from 5 minute intervals to 20 minutes within the week! Scary, but I'm sure the program has prepared me!!

    I beleive they are 3lb weights, but you can use any size, it's up to you. I use 5lbs, 3lbs and 2lbs depending on the movement.

    I'm in!! Started last night. I am also doing C25K. I am going to be doing week 3, day 1 tonight. I am going to try and do it everyother day as well. I am also doing Biggest Loser on the Wii. Has anyone done Biggest Loser on the Wii? Right now I have it set to 3 times a week on the moderate level. It's not too bad.

    Does anyone know where to get the free MP3 files to use for the C25K that tell you when to walk/run? That would be great!!! I don't have an ipod, I just use my Blackberry.

    It depends on your taste in music, but the ones I see people mention most often are available on the following sites:
