Hi everyone, I am new to this group and started C25K yesterday.

A bit of history about me:

I am 34 with 2 children (14 & 12), I was diagnosed with Crohns about 8 years ago, but have been in remission for alomost 5 years now. I have been on MFP for about 2 years just over, I originally lost 21lbs between March 2012 and June last year (slow & steady) but I gave up smoking last August and since have gained almost 2 stone , I still try and workout when I can but other factors (MIL being diagnosed with cancer and passing away all within 19 weeks) I have really fallen off the wagon, the reason I have started C25K is that when I was a teenager (age 12 - 16) I ran a LOT, I ran for the school, the town and the county doing 800m, 1,500m & cross country. I LOVED running and found 1 of my certificates from 1991 (when I was 12) and it was a certificate for a 4km run that I completed in 18.32 minutes!!! I would really like to do 5km in 30 mins eventually (I did a 5km race about 7 years ago in 35 minutes, and that was when I smoked!!) Alongside C25K I am going to try and get 2 days of other exercise (weights or biking) I also want to try and get back into my clothes from last year more comfortably and lose the weight I've gained. (I know that my diet needs to be better to help with this also)

I am going to try and stick with the C25K plan currently I will be doing it on the treadmill at the gym, so I can judge how fast I can run and keep that pace up before hitting the pavements/park etc...

Any advice and support would be great Sorry I have waffled on
