Does c25k really get easier? What kind of results have peopl

JeSuisPrest

It amazes me how much I struggled in the beginning of C25K, but I've completed it and have moved one to Ease Into Bridge To 10K. I chose the Ease Into one only because my legs are sore from the other workouts I do. Never, ever, ever did I think I'd become a runner!

I did week1 day1 today and I am AMAZED that I did it. There was a part of me that thought I would die halfway through and not complete it...but I did it and never stopped! Although I had jelly legs at the end I didn't feel completely spent either. There's more in me, I can feel it. However, I'm not going to go mad - I'll take my time and do what the nice lady on my ipod says to do.

On the days I'm not doing it I'm doing 30ds also, but not on the same day - the c25krunning, the 30ds jumping jack, skipping, butt kicks etc. are a recipe for an injury - to my mind anyway, it's too much for a beginner (me).

But I'm still completely psyched that I managed it...I can't even remeber the last time I ran - maybe at school and I'm now in my 30's!!

I am on week 1 day 3 (tomorrow) I have 69lb's more to lose. I am 5'2 to give you some idea of how over weight i am! I was surprised the fist day i did the whole 30 mins I really pushed myself through those voices in my head telling me I couldn't do it. I didn't stretch BIG MISTAKE. I was really sore on my thighs and shins. I didn't do so well on day 2 as not only did i have sore muscles it had gone from 5 degrees cold to -4 and I couldn't breath so well. I will do day 3 tomorrow and see how I go but if I can't do the whole 30 mins I will be repeating week one. This isn't a time trial for me, long term I would like to lose weight, get healthy & be able to run 3/4 times a week to keep in shape.

Thank you to whoever pointed out that shoulder pain was caused by dehydration.... that makes sense!
