Hello all!! I'm so glad I stumbled on this group. I have never in my life been a runner and I'm on my 3rd attempt at the C25K. I've gotten further and further each time and I have been struggling. This time I actually made it to W3. It took me 8 weeks to get to here, and I've been here for 3 weeks. I haven't been able to comfortably complete W3 yet. After reading through the posts looking for help, I think I know why. I'm certain my problem is I'm going too fast. I have been walking at 3.5 and jogging/running 5.0.I don't know why it never dawned on me to just slow down. So, I'm going to start W3D1 again tomorrow morning, this time slower. I am determined! Thank you again!! :happy:

    I'm glad you found the information to make the program work for you! Everybody goes too fast at the beginning...we all think that running is about going fast or something :) What it's really about is finding what works for you.
