    Hi everyone! I just finished the first week of C25K... loving it so far! What a cool app... even managed to run outside one night! I think I ate some bugs along the way. Should I log them as a snack? LOL....

    As I told my co-worker, its good to sweat... that way no one sees you cry... :)

    Hello, my name is Marie-Josée. I just started again I the C25k today. I did some last fall but stop in the winter because of the snow. How do you enter your run in MFP? I can't find it in the entries.

    I finished W2D3 on Wednesday. Yesterday I was feeling restless and I missed my usual kickboxing class, so I did a "preview" of W3D1 (I didn't log it officially but I did the run). Running for 3 minutes was not terribly easy for me but I got through it :) Man I can't believe I'm going to have to run for TWENTY in two weeks....

    Hi all - just restarted today. Planning my first 5k on Labor Day! I posted this in the main forum, but am actually training 90% of the time on an elliptical (to save my knees). Anxious to find out if anyone else has done this and has any advice.

    Hi everyone! Started week 2 yesterday! You can follow my journey under the topic " Virginie's progress ..." in this group. I've never been able to run and now I push myself and see that it's doable, I really like the program and enjoy running in the summer weather!

    I'm new too! Today is day 1! I haven't done my first C25K run yet, but I'm excited! I've tried it before and it worked really well, but I let myself stop and get back to being unhealthy. So, here we go again! Cheers to staying motivated and getting fit!

    Hi - I am new on this board and pretty excited! Tomorrow is day3 of week 4 and I am nervous/curious about week 5. I've got two little kids (3 yrs and 20months) and I am doing this so my kids grow up with running as a part of thier lifestyle. My goal is a 5k by September in 30 minutes! But....maybe not....

    I have not yet started the program but am planning to next week. I have been on MFP since February and have lost 30 IBS so far. I have been reading about many people on here who have done this and would like to add some friends who will support and motivate me!!

    I'm on week 5 day two and thinking about day 3, lol! This is about my 3rd week using fitness pal and I love it. Using fitness pal and C25k is working great!!! If anyone wants to add me, please do! I started at about 325lbs at the end of March and I'm down to 301 as of today. I lost 7lbs just this past week alone! I have about 80lbs to go!!!

    I am also a C25K and it's an amazing program, stick with it and take those rest days in between your runs and you'll succeed!! :)
