    I'm currently doing C25K...day one injured myself, I have been off for the time the doc said, tomorrow I'm back at it no matter what. I hope to run my first 5K after completing it. I'm inspired :happy:

    Thanks so much! Not sure what's next. Maybe a 10K, but probably a couple of more 5K's first.

    I first started running in mid-January. I did the Couch to 5K training program.

    Congrats!!!

    This is my goal, too. I'm slowly building stamina, but asthma is a challenge. :frown:

    I'm sure that is. You'd only think I have asthma from the way I huff and puff. But you can do it, even if it does take you a bit longer to build up!
