Starting Week 4 tonight!
Keep going, it gets better with each session - personally plowing through Day 1 of a new week keeps me moving for the next two and I look forward to them!0 -
Hi I started last week and just finished day 3 of week 2 yesterday! I really am enjoying it!0
-
Wow glad to see others just starting or still doing this, it's been around so long now I thought I was going to be a loner lol0
-
Doing the third session of week three tomorrow morning. Enjoy is such a strong word, persevering is where I am at and waiting for the famous runner buzz to kick in. Will see how it goes0

Started week 1 day 1. It would be nice to have some support buddies0

Starting week 1 day 1 tonight after work today0

I finished it in May, and I just wanted to give encouragement! It might be hard some days, but it feels like such an accomplishment when you pump out those 3.11 miles without walking at the end. Also, it is much easier to add mileage after you get to that point. I am tackling a half marathon training plan next! And no matter how far I'm running, the first mile always sucks the most.
Enjoy the running!0 -
Just finished week 2 here! I'm finding that I actually really enjoy it! Especially, the feeling of accomplishment after I'm done. Starting week 3 Friday!0

Deffo and great news I've just done week one day two this morning and still enjoying it personally ( even if my legs disagree right now lol) feel free to add me be great to see people's progress etc x0

I am not new to c25k but I just started again. Yesterday I did Week 1 Day 1 and I had forgotten how much I enjoy running...and sweating. Since I am not new to running, I did not find it very challenging but it was a good ease back into running. I am looking forward to Day 2!0

I started last week. I'm planning to do W2D2 tonight.0
-
I just started too. Tonight (if the weather cools off a bit) I'll be doing Week 3 day 3. If it's still super hot and muggy tonight I'll do it tomorrow morning.0

Congrats! I've done it off and on but haven't committed to the full program yet. It is on my to-do list but I might just shut up and start again and finish already. lol0 -
HI! I had completed 4 weeks of it and fell off the wagon 2 months ago. I'm jumping back on it this week and will complete it!0
-
I finished Week 3 last night. I'm loving it so far. A bit nervous for Week 4, but have felt so good so far with the program that I'm not going to give up0

I just wanted to add my encouragement. I started it in October 2013. Took me 14 weeks because I was very overweight, out of shape and repeated a lot of weeks.
Yesterday I ran 5 miles. I'm running 12-15 miles a week and just signed up for a half marathon in January. I've also lost 45 pounds.
I hated running at first. I literally counted my steps because I know I run about 150 steps a minute. I begged myself to walk but stubbornly refused to fail. Now I love running. I don't think about the effort. I truly have "easy" runs. I feel amazing.
I'm still slow, but faster than I was. I'm still overweight but at least no longer obese. I may not be super fit, but I can physically do things I haven't been able to do in a long time. Trust the program, take it easy. Allow yourself days off and repeat weeks as needed. It will be worth it!0 -
I did week 1 twice since I wasn't sure I'd be ready for week 2. Starting week 2 tomorrow. I really need to work on my pacing so I'm not too tired by the end of it.0
