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.

    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!

    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:
