Thought I'd keep the posts going! It keeps me motivated!

Completed Week 5/Day 1 yesterday. It's definately getting more challenging! I'm thrilled that I've been able to keep up my pace during the entire run! I'm feeling pretty good during my runs, no pain anywhere - just sweat! LOL!

Looking forward to Day 2!

Hope everyone has a great week!

    Before I felt: Ready! I was excited to start week 5!

    During I felt: Confident during the first 5 minute run, but then my calves started BURNING afterwards. I pushed myself through the other two 5 min. jogs and made it through!

    After I felt: Amazing! I was so proud of myself knowing that I just jogged for 15 minutes during my workout!!!

    My boyfriend keeps telling me that I should go back to Week 3 because I tell him how much my calves hurt, but I told him that I want to push myself and make a change.

    Hi Everyone - well I just finished Week5/Day 3. I made it to the 15 minute mark and had to walk for a few minutes and then I managed to run again for 2more minutes - total of 17 minutes. Trying to focus on the positive instead of the negative!

    Will start Week 6 on Thursday. I need to get back to Mon/Wed/Fri schedule - these holiday weekends are messing me up!

    Hope everyone is doing well with their runs!

  • Just finished Week 6 Day 1!!

    I was ready to start jogging! As I was leaving school I was happy that it was time for C25K when I got home.

    As I was jogging I felt GREAT! I thought today was fairly easy for some reason :] Maybe I am becoming a jogger!

    After I felt accomplished! I am so proud of myself for sticking with this program for 6 weeks! I usually start an exercise program, but never finish it because I get bored.

    I LOVE C25K!
