which do y'all do your C25k on? For me personally I do it inside on a treadmill (at 5 am!) basically because its early and the track closest to me is at least 5 miles away. My neighborhood has monstrous hills and Im just not ready to tackle that beast just yet

I do it inside on a treadmill as well. I ran 2-5k's back in 2010 and without this program. I thought I was ready I could run 2-3 miles pretty well at that time. Boy was I wrong. I almost died at each 5k. This time around I am going to do this program and then find another 3 week program that I will attempt outside. I have a friend that teaches Personal Fitness and MMA training. His mantra is working out in the gym makes you pretty, working out outside makes you Fit in the real world. I am just not ready to tackle the real world just yet...lol0

I run outside right now, because I love outside and it is warm...once the time changes, though I will have to find another alternative on the weekdays, it will be too dark in the morning and the evenings...I have a gym near work that is $3.00 a day...that might get expensive, they don't have one that charges monthly but I will figure out something!! lol0

I do a mixture. I love jogging outside but sometimes running on a treadmill is easier when Im already at the gym.0

I plan on doing the majority of mine on the treadmill. My town is all hills and I am not ready to tackle those yet

I always run outside. My gym is a mile or so from my dorm and it seems silly and counterproductive to go all the way out there just to get my run in...if I were to jog there and back I'd have finished well over 3/4 of the workout anyway!0

I prefer outside, but if the weather is bad then it's the gym treadmill. but mostly outside0

I run outside. I also do part on a wooded trail I use as a shortcut to the quiet road behind me. No one there to watch me flop around, and it's a lot safer for the dogs as well. If all goes as planed, I should finish by mid-October before the snow comes, but then I plan on finding a cheap treadmill to I can continue running during the winter as I've plans to, after the c25k, to do the 10k program (and then the 13.1, 26.2 lol).0
