    Good luck, you guys! I hope you love the program! Don't worry about having a slow time - just have fun and worry about beating your personal record in your next race. ;)

    Completed W1 D2 yesterday. Honestly I wasn’t planning to do it because I was so tired from the day that I had. But I made it the days commitment/goal (to do C25K) that I wanted to tick off so I got onto the treadmill !

    One more day for week 1 to go!

    Great job!

    I'm going to start training this summer. There's a 5K on August 31st I'm going to either walk or run (both are options and I'm already walking twice that most weekdays. My goal is to walk 2 hours a day. Typically, that comes in at around 6 1/2 miles or slightly over 10k.) Downloaded a 7-week training program for a 5K run that I mean to start come June.

    Meanwhile, I'm in Toronto and it's winter, so probably wise to wait.

    Ok so my ultimate goal is to be able to do a Spartan race or equivalent obstacle course. To do that I will need to be able to run a 5k. So starting Sunday I am going to start my C25K. Its been a while since I have done any kind of running. Hopefully I can do this. I'll check back in on Sunday...

    Hey all.....I'm in and just completed D2 W1 on our treadmill.
    I usually walk about 5 miles a day, but have never run. Although I'm in my 60s I'd love to do a 5k run this year!

    Good job!! How’s it going?

    Awesome, I'm doing a C25K and the last day of the program is the day of the race. It will be my first 5k. Let's do this!

    I'm in but will start it on Thursday. I need to be fitter and healthier and hope that this will kick start me.

    Well done to those who have already started.
