Hi! This is my first week on myfitnesspal. I want to start a running for beginners program today. I am considering c25k because I have a few friends who recommend it. Has anyone completed this program or is anyone currently doing this program?

    I love this program. I'm currently in week 6. Get it. You won't regret it.

    It's a great program. I used the following to listen to.

    Great program. I never ran before (took the zero in high school all four years when it came to running). This program got me through my first 5K. Addicting!
    Unfortunately, I've had a couple of injuries, and have not been able to run since. Hope to overcome plantar faciitis so I can run again. What once was a non-option for me, with c25k became zen.
    Good luck!!

    I'm at the end of my first week, after a false start in week 1. Three runs in the last week have been awesome. My jog turned from a zombie style shuffle into an actual run today. Next run, 1 min 30 intervals!
