    Doing w2d3 today! Just take it slow...it is a jog starting out, not a run. Listen to your body and follow the advice on the C2K page! Best of luck...enjoying it so far... Love that I can get past my knee injury using this method rather than killing myself :)

    I'm in!! I dusted off the t'mill last night, so I'm ready as long as my hip holds up! Been doing better, until I work it, so I'm gonna go slow.

    I want to join the challenge! I have tried the Couch 2 5k in the past, but I have never gotten past Week 2. I did Week 1, Day 1 on Thursday. It was really awful, but I got through it.

    I have always tried (and failed) running on the treadmill, but I am wondering if I might be more successful running outdoors? I am just not that good at using the treadmill. I always feel like I am going to lose my balance. Does anyone else have that issue?

    Well done guys, glad to hear you're all doing so well!
    I didn't go for a run today but I will do W1 D3 tomorrow. I have a feeling I'll have to repeat a day or two but I'll see how tomorrow's run is.

    W1 D3 complete. Definitely going to repeat a few days, if not the whole week. I don't feel like my fitness has gotten any better and I've struggled to complete each run ( having to take a break half way through each time). I'm definitely not ready for week 2 just yet.

    I started week 4 last night. Wasn't terrible... we'll see how tomorrow goes! I've done better staying more consistent with doing it every other day, and then resting for 2. Seems to make a BIG difference. I do do this in addition to zumba/kickboxing/etc.

    Just started yesterday! Week 1 Day 1 - went well. I did my walking at a little over 4mph and running at a little over 6mph with some incline. Can't wait for day 2. :-)
