Couch to 5k - Starting 02/23/15

I'm looking for people to friend on here who are also looking to train using the C25k running plan.
I already completed C25k once (last spring) and jogged/walked my first 5k on July 4th at 39:26. I'm aiming to get under 35:00 at the same annual 5k July 4th 2015! Since the summer I haven't gotten much running in and I figure it'd be a good place to start again.
I'm going to start on February 23 (I always start my week on a Monday). I plan to run 3-4 times a week; I've been running on a treadmill due to joint and asthma problems but once it warms up here I plan to switch over to running on a track.
Anyone else looking to start or re-start? Let's do it together!

I am planning on running my first 5k in April. I planned on using C25K also! I'll add ya!-1

Sure I'll join in! It's bitterly cold here though (-37*C), so I've been running on the spot in m living room. Probably 2-3 more weeks before it's decent enough to even think about running outside0

I'm going to download the "Zombies, Run!!" app which apparently has a C25k type module. It sounds fun and entertaining. I was planning to wait until I got under 155 lb but I'm only 1-2 lb away and getting bored with my cardio stuff so I'll be starting soon.0

You can add me as a friend if you'd like. I'm going to post after each workout.
Or I guess we can just post in this thread for everyone who plans to start next week!0
