I did it this morning! 35.11, my best time yet! I started C25k on August 13th and was never a runner! If I can do it anyone can!

    Just wondering whereabouts you start with this program? is it a small amount each day?? slowly building up?
    Do you have some links to a running schedule that can be posted for help getting started?

    I learned about the program at the website coolrunning.com. It is a program that gradually builds you up so at 9 weeks you should be able to run 5k. I also have an app that gets me through the workout with prompts. It is a wonderful program, many people who were first timers at the 5k used it.
