    Hi guys, is there a simple way to log c25k on the exercise section on MFP? I typed in c25k but nothing came up :(
    I log my running with Endomondo, and when I finish a work out, Endomondo automaticly sends it to MFP.

    Week 4, lesson 2 yet! Tonight part 3 of this week :D.

    Hello all, I am on Week 2, first run done this morning. I am really enjoying it! Using Sports Tracker on my phone (similar to Endomondo) and every time I run my speed has improved. That's a great motivator.:happy:

    Ooo thank you I might have a nose for that now :) can I run this along side the c25k app though? or will that track what I need? Sorry for all the questions

    Oh, you can perfectly run those two together! But charge your battery on forehand, cause you need quite a lot :).

    I'm on week 2 day 3 and alternate with 30DS. Feel free to add me. I am a complete non-runner so this will be an interesting journey.:laugh:

    I'm doing the same thing acutally lol. Some days I do both. I'm a runner (never thought I'd say that,).. I was training for my first full marathon last year and came down with IT Band Syndrome. After 2 months of no running, I've been using C25K as my come-back strategy. Just completed Week 2, pain free! Can't wait to get those full miles back!

    Feel free to add me as well!

    Hi all. I am 35 and a mom of 2. I would like to get in shape, and lose another 15 pounds. Was at 153.6 but crept up to 156 over the weekend. I go through spurts of motivation, and have started the program many times but never finished. I downloaded an app on my ipod touch and decided I was going to get at it today. So with you help and motivation I hope to stay motivated and complete the program. I think the furthest I have made was week 5. I have run 5km a few times but has been quite a few months. I would love to run a 10km in June, so thought this was a good place to start.

    Love that idea of alternating between the 2. I love 30DS, but can't stand doing the same thing everyday.

    Thankfully completed week 6 this morning with a full 25 minute run!!! Week 5-6 are the toughest (in my opinion) as they have the biggest jumps in the run portion. All of week #7 is the same - 25 minute runs with walking only for warm up and cool down. Week #8 is just adding 3 minutes to the run and week 9 adds another 2 minutes - seems easy after week 5 and 6!!!! Then you are ready for a 5k!!!

    My 5K is March 16 and I believe (finally) that I will be ready. My challenge is the weather has been so cold and snowy that all my real running has been on a .10 of a mile track (all turns and no hills). Planning on some tread hills on my off days, (I run every other day as I am too old and too heavy to wreck my knees/hips trying to run every day) and hoping that I can actually get outside at least a little prior to March 16!!!

    Good luck to all C25K runners, you can do it!!!!!
