I did day1 week 9 of c25k today. I run (well jogged - 5.6mph) for 30 mins strait. When I started on Feb 1 if someone would have told me that I would be able to do so, I would have thought they are crazy!!!! I barely could run for 30 secs.

Yes, I am going to register for a 5k for April 27. I hope I can improve my speed though0 -
Woohoo - its the greatest feeling isn't it!! I completed C25K about a year ago and am now running distances that I never could have conceived of before!0

I love C25K! Because of it, I was able to run my first 5K last January. I now am working on my first 10K for June and I'm using the 10K app -- you should give it a try!
Great job!0 -
Great job! This is a goal of mine at some point, but currently my knees will now allow it. Nice job!!0

C25K is awesome!
I am starting over from over 5 years of not beinag able to run due to illness.
I just ran Day 1 Week 5!
What a great way to help people get started and/or start over!0 -
Sooooo great! I can't wait to get there. I did week 3, day 2 today.0

That's amazing progress!! Congrats on your 30min run! :flowerforyou:0
-
That is super awesome!! Congrats!! I love c25k - tomorrow is day 2 of week 7 for me. Great work!0

I absolutely LOVE this app! :smooched:
I feel so good when I complete a day, and I never thought I would be jogging such a distance UNTIL my friend asked me to run a 5K with her last October. I didn't quite run that one much, but I jogged almost the entire 5K we did together this past January. I wasn't fast by ANY means, but it was amazing to know that I only had to walk the extreme uphill section, and the rest I slow jogged (what I call a wog = walking/jogging). I think with this app I have been able to lose these past 35 pounds.
Great job you for sticking to it and loving your own success! :happy:0 -
Congrats!
What app did you use? There are SO many out there.0 -
I need to start C25K again, but I remember the first time I did the 30 min straight it was so exciting, good job!0

CONGRATS! I feel the same way ~ I'm doing a similar program (mine is called :Get Running" but same concept. And I just said the same thing to my husband... I went from being so out of breath after a minute, yet yesterday I ran for 25 min straight(I'm on week 7) Congrats again! I feel so empowered and so proud of myself I want to sign up for a color run! or something fun like it!

Ugh. I hate to spend even 1.57. I'm too poor and cheap. But maybe I will try the 2 week trial and see how I like it, then decide. I know it shouldn't be a big deal to spend that.0 -
I just completed W4D1 tonight. Had to really push through that last 5 min jog but I did it! I agree that if you would have told me I could do this a month ago, I wouldn't have believed you!! I'm only at 4.3 mph...what speed are you all jogging at? Just wondering if I should speed it up a little bit.0

Woohoo! I love seeing posts like this. I'm currently just done W4D3 (after a few tries - I was going too fast on my treadmill at 6.0 so finishing it was always a bit too hard, so I have been here for a couple weeks just to feel comfortable, then I realized I'd set my speed too high - first I need to work at being able to run, next I work on speeding up! After bumping it down to 5.5 I found it challenging but do-able). Way to go with completing the program. You're a runner!0
