    Should you really be mixing up C25K with weights? I would have thought C25K would be enough for your legs.

    Uh, no.. Not even close. C25K does nothing for your legs as far as muscle retention is concerned.. so yes, she needs to be lifting weights while doing C25K. If anything, the weight lifting will make her running better and not worse.

    To OP:
    My suggestion is rest until the feeling is completely gone and then try again.

    Also, what shape are your running shoes in? I was having issues with my legs until I replaced my shoes... now I don't have any issues while running.
