    I'm on week 1 also! I'm doing it with my 3 kids ages 15 to 5. :D We registered for the Color Run in Raleigh and even booked our hotel... so there's absolutely no backing out for me! Feel free to add me as well! :D

    I am doing one. I am on week two day two. Who knew the difference from running one minute to one and half minutes was so big. As i was running last night I thought " there is no way I can run a 5km straight" but then I reminded myself that, that is why I am doing the training so I will get there, but boy, sometimes it is tough. Feel free to add me as a friend.

    I'm getting ready for my 5k @ the end of next month. I'm alternating pavement and treadmill every other day for 4 miles. IMO, the treadmill is much easier. lol Working up my duration from walking less to jogging more on the workouts. One minute on the pavement seems like forever compared to the treadmill!!! lol

    Feel free to add me! :)

    What is this little treat? Sounds like something I could try, however with Zumba, insanity and hip hop abs I might just OD :ohwell:

    Just finished Week 2 Day 2 this morning. I reached this point once before but went back and started over. Feel better this time, I definitely feel it is a mind set. When my alarm goes off at 5 am, I argue with myself if I am going or not. Always glad when I do

    Hey everyone, C25k graduate here. You guys can do this -- don't give up even when it's awful. There will indeed be those moments. But the pride I felt when I finished was unlike anything else, and for that it was all worth it.

    I'm starting week 4 tomorrow and have never been a runner and don't necessarily think I will but have noticed I don't hate C25K. Signed up for Color Run in Sept.

    Hey everyone
    Just signed up with my fitness pal and C25K yesterday. 1st day on run was great and then walked back home on the beach about 45 min. Use to be a runner many moons ago , lots of 10 and 15 K and even one marathon---ha a LONG time ago- 98-. Felt great to run ...or actually to slug along! It's a start.....sore quads today! Off to ride the bike! Would love to be friends with anyone here to offer support. Need to look at how to download C25K to i pod or phone...music helps! Good evening to all!
    Susan
    ps..We can bust up this bad boy! Bring on the 5 K. Looked them up in my area and gonna register for 9/28 if up through week two goes well!

    Hi there! I just started week 1 day 1 today! My first 5k is September 15th. I use the Zombies Run app - it was $1.99 in the iTunes store last week. I need to find some music that works for me, though. I found your post because I'm looking for playlists that are pretty upbeat but not interval based because the app takes care of the prompting for me. Friend me if you'd like!

    Just started C25K yesterday. I'd love more friends who are also doing the program!
    I never thought I could be a runner - but maybe C25K will change that for me!

    I just finished W2D3. I have 2 very small children and a dh that works long hours so the only time I can do it is by getting up at 5am. I know I will need the support of this group to keep me going. It's so for me to get up that early! Great work everyone and please add me as a friend.
