    I'd like to give C25K a shot again...I tried it about a year and a half ago or maybe longer and had to stop because I kept re-injuring my foot. I have been wanting to really get into running for a long time, hopefully this time around will work for me! My goals are to lose weight, tone up, gain endurance and finally accomplish this goal.

    I started C25K because I wanted to learn to run. I actually tried it Aug 6th when I began my diet and I couldn't make it the 60 sec of jogging on the 1st day. So I decided to give myself a month of past paced walking/ jogging. I am glad I did, now I am on W2D2 and I can get through it with no issues, this week anyways :)

    Today is my first day on MFP. I added the C25K app on my phone last week, determined to start today. Your group will be great motivation.
    My reasons are: 1- build endurance, 2- lose weight, 3- fight fall/winter SADD.

    My goals: Lose weight, run for the first time in my life, get fit.

    I have been wanting to learn to run, never have before, but I'm 85 lbs. down now with 100 lbs to go until I hit my goal. I figure the couch to 5K is my ultimate goal here as well. Not sure how to begin. Help!!

    I started C25K several months ago, but couldn't get past a couple of weeks because of knee problems. Determined to do it this time! I'm in!

    Goals - to aid in losing weight and to relieve stress!
