Not new Here, but I have a new Fitness Goal

Hey Guys and Gals! I have been using MPF on and off for years, this most recent stint started in July. I am starting to train for a 5K in April, I have previously done the C25K program, so this time around I modified it a little for myself. I wanted to find some friends who are into running, to help with motivation and suggestions on improving my running. If this is you, please feel free to add me

Hi Holly - I'm working my way through the C25K 9 week program right now. Tonight will be the final workout for the first week. I also have plans to do a 5K, likely in May/early June and if that goes well, I want to train for a 10K in October.

so how fast are you running currently? Do you have a goal speed?

hello!
I just started running this week - was dead set on avoiding it before now.
Have gone two nights this week and am going again tonight.

I am treadmill running at the moment (blizzarding outside) and jog for about 25 mins straight at 5.0 speed on the treadmill and a 1.5 incline.
I am hoping to increase my speed, then increase my time, with the ultimate goal of running a 5K early next year!

I'm hoping to do a 5k sometime in Nov/Dec

Looking to finish under 25 minutes.

Another 2 mile run in! ran the first half mile at 5.0, the next miles at 5.2 and the last half mile at 5.5, it was pretty sweet!
