I'm new here ... not sure if this is the right posting board for this but I'm looking for a place to hear about your victory days or even down days and share mine with C25K. I've got week 8 day on for tomorrow and am feeling pretty good with it. Where are you on the training?

    I just did week 8 day 3 yesterday. I am excited to finally be moving on to week 9 and hopefully graduating! I started at the beginning of December, so the 9 week program has been a lot longer for me. But I never ever ever thought I could run for even 5 minutes straight due to my asthma, never mind the 28 minutes I did yesterday!

    Do you have any goals in mind? I would like to run a 5k race, but I haven't chosen one yet. I run so slowly that I am only going around 2.75 miles in an outing right now.

    You are in the right place!

    hoyalawya - sounds like you're ready for your first 5k.

    You are definitely in the right place. This is a great place for encouragement. It helped me tremendously during training. sounds like you're doing really well with the program.

    hoyalawya, you're doing super. Your speed is really good, I think.

    I graduated from C25K just over a year now and am still running. I'm still amazed that I run more than a few minutes. I find enjoyment and challenge in almost every run, so it never gets "old". Running is a wonderful activity with many surprises along the way (all good ones).
