Just posting this on the boards in case someone is interested in joining me for motivation and support.
This is probably my third time starting the C25K. I always get to either week 2 or 3 and stop. I want to be able to say I completed this program instead of "oh yeah I got to week 4 and had to stop".
All are welcome!!!

I started yesterday Downloaded the C25K app on my phone, and I love it. I've always done interval run/walking when I start really getting into running (I have an on again/off again relationship with running haha), but I was always frustrated starting and restarting my stopwatch, so nice to not worry about it and just listen for a beep!0
-
Haha as they say, there's an app for that! Downloading now!0

Okay...I'm in! I have wanted to do this for a while. I'm not a runner, so I hope I can keep up!0

Don't stop! If you have a hard time with a certain week, go back and do the week before again...many people do that. It helps I hear.
I just did Week 5, Day 1 this morning.
YOU CAN DO IT!0 -
I just completed week 5 day 1. I had to repeat week 4 because I struggled with week 4 day 2 and 3. I was able to make it through today without stopping. Don't be afraid to repeat a week or two. Just keep going!! You can do it!!!0
-
I started today! Feel free to add me :flowerforyou: We can support each other!0

I've just finished it and loved it. I would never have thought I would be able to run 5K but I did and have now moved on to the B210K programme. Go for it if you are thinking of starting and good luck to those who have already started. Feel free to add me for support0

I have never run in my life until starting couch to 5 k. I did week 5 day 1 this morning! I'm doing it on treadmill, and I'm really, really slow, but I'm starting to enjoy it and I cannot believe the pride and achievement I feel! Add me if you like0

I started C25K last night and i still can't believe i made it through the whole thing. I've never run before so i hope i can keep up with everyone but id love to do this with a group so feel free to add me to the list.0

What I find helps is printing out a table with stage, date and a space for comments and putting it in the wall. A reminder to you and everyone to track how you're doing.0

HEY GUYS, I'M GOING TO BE STARTING UP TONIGHT WITH DAY 1! PLEASE CHECK IN IF YOU WOULD LIKE SO THAT WE CAN KEEP EACH OTHER MOTIVATED!!!0
-
Just finished Week 1 Day 1...it was great Can't wait to continue! Hopefully everyone is doing well with it!0

I started on Monday. Tonight will be my second run. The first workout was pretty hard since I don't run at all! Feel free to add me so we can keep each other motivated!0
-
i don't run but i'm planning on starting this in a couple of hours actually! so please feel free to add. i don't know if you in the US can get it, have a look, but on itunes there's a podcast run by the NHS healthy choices, which provides you with music/instructions, i.e. a posh british woman telling you when to run and walk! i've just put it on my ipod so i don't need to stare at timers
the podcast is just called 'couch to 5k' by NHS choices and is totally free.0 -
I brisk walk anywhere between 3 and 5 miles a day, but just downloaded the app and it looks like it could be fun. Starting tomorrow. Will take any new friends. Love new friends0
-
I'm going to start this tomorrow too! Add me and help me be motivated!!:happy:0
