S:happy today I completed week 6, the one where you run 25 minutes straight. I was so glad that I actually did it! I feel like I'm on top of the world. Anyone else feel like this after they accomplished the end of the intervals and the beginning of the longer runs? :happy: :glasses:

    Tomorrow is W6 D3 for me! I was amazed at the end of last week when I did the 20 minutes straight, I can't wait to see if I can do the 25! I'm doing this with my sister and 2 teenage nieces, and we were all celebrating our last intervals run yesterday :)

    I felt like that last night after my first 20 minute run. I was just feeling high for the next few hours. It's kind of awesome!

    I got that after W5D3. (: I'm scheduled to do W6D3 on Sunday, so hoping to get that again there too! But I always get really happy/proud of myself whenever I finish any day of C25K. Just a good sense of accomplishment makes me cruise happily through the rest of my day.

    I guess for me it is knowing that there are no more intervals...just long runs left!

    Wow - great! I did C25K last year, ran my first 5K in Sept 2011 and focused on other training etc. Started C25K again in July for another 5K this Sept. Last year I did the running mainly on a treadmiill and so this year I'm outside -- just finished week 3. You guys are my idols!

    I just did Week 8/ Day 2 this AM and I love not doing intervals anymore. Just me running. An amazing feeling.
