W5D3 complete!! If you would have said to me in week one that I'd be running non-stop for 20 minutes by the end of week 5 i would have laughed and said no way. Well I just did it
Keep at it everyone. 0 -
I completed W3D3 today. I did the 5 min warm up and then jogged for 20 minutes straight then cooled down the rest. It felt great.0

I have been using C25K to vary my routine for about a month now. Never really following it but using it to get from walking to running. I just finished finished one and moving on to week 2. Anyone can friend me if you like. I try to support and I log every day.0

Feeling very proud

I guess all the programs are different? My week 3 is 1:30/1:30 run/walk followed by 3:00/3;00 run/walk x 20 -

No they are all the same I just push myself every Friday just to see how far I can go. When I feel it I just keep going. If I can go Ill go if not Ill stick with the intervals for the days/weeks program im doing at the time. Today was W4D1 I jogged for the first 10 minutes then fell into the intervals from there. 2.18 miles today in the 31 minute workout. I use the program to push me but when I feel I can push myself further I wont limit myself to only a few minutes of jogging. Im the person that passes the slow car first not the guy that tailgates and waits to get passed before deciding it ok if I pass.0 -
I just completed W2D2 today. Feel free to add me.0

Oh okay, awesome! I thought 20 minutes seemed hard core for week 3!!! lol I can only dream of doing a 20 minute interval!!! hehehe0 -
By the end of week 5 you'll be doing a 20 minute run. I thought the same thing, no way can I do that, but I was able to do it. Just stick with it and you will be able to do it as wellI completed W3D3 today. I did the 5 min warm up and then jogged for 20 minutes straight then cooled down the rest. It felt great.

That's awesome! You will have no troubles doing this. Sounds like you would find the C210K more of a challenge? I'm thinking of doing that after I finish the C25K since I'm enjoying it so much.I completed W3D3 today. I did the 5 min warm up and then jogged for 20 minutes straight then cooled down the rest.

I tried your method tonight and when I ran the 3 minutes (I'm on W3D3) of my last interval was up, I jogged through the "brisk walk" portion, which is also 3 minutes. so 6 minutes was doable (not much more than that though lol. I'm going to be starting week 4 after tomorrow .... EEEEP!0 -
Well I finished W4D3 yesterday and should be starting W5D1 tomorrow or on Friday....The last day of W4 was a sore one but it was the first time I have done this after work so I think that did not help.
Anyway, only 5 weeks left ..... ;-)0 -
Well thats Week 5 Day 1 completed this morning. Was not as hard as I thought it was going to be...even continued to do more work on the treadmill after my last rest period. So roll on W5D2......0
-
I started in february and then was run down with a hacking cough that is still lingering (saw the Doc last month and was told that it didn't sound like anything to worry about, come back in May if it's still there....) but as the weather is getting warmer *touch wood* I may start again when I get back to my uni halls.0

Well went to the gym today, thought I would go easy on myself as I completed W5D1 yesterday.....but thought what the heck just put it on W5D2 and wanted to maybe do the first half as never tried 8minutes constant....ended up completing W5D2....yea ha...was not as bad as I thought it would be....will leave W5D3 until Tuesday for an early morning session.....Really impressed with myself today even if I must say so......0

Well what a suprise....W5 D3 completed today...was not as hard as I thought it would be and my jogging was at just under 5mph...0

I followed the program until week 7 when I got sick for about 2 weeks! But there was a charity 5k for my job and I really wanted to participate so I did! And I made it to the finish line!!!! I was really surprised at my time and the sheer joy I felt.
Lots of encouragement going out to all of you You can do it!! There may be hurdles along the way but that's what makes it worthwhile 0 -

Just started C25K this week, I will be ready for Week 2 starting Monday. I found this last week super easy because I had previously been doing interval running. But I really do like it thus far, the App is great! Any tips on other types of cardio I can do between the 3 days of C25k?0
