    I'm in!

    I started C25k a few months ago and I loved it. But I got stuck at about week 5 and then just stopped altogether :blushing:

    This time I really want to get to the end and stay committed. If I can commit to my eating plan, why can't I commit to an exercise plan?

    W1D1 completed yesterday. I'm road running so don't know how fast I was going, but I think I managed to keep up a good pace. I am following the Ease in to 5k app for the iphone.

    HI everyone! W1D2 completed. I had a little improvement since the first day. My distance was 1.91 then, and today it was 2.01. Progress! Keep at it, you're all doing a fine job!!

    What is everyone's average time from start to finish? mine is 30 minutes. I do the warm up brisk walk, then about the last 4 minutes I cool down with a walk.

    W1D2 Complete!

    I finished my day 2 by myself. My daughter had to much school work to do this evening. I am also improving my time.

    Started out last week doing a little here and there not the program yet. I was at a 21 minute mile then. Now I am doing a 17.3 minute mile. WooHoo!

    I started out at 1.5 miles and now did 2 miles in 35 minutes. :) Yah Me! I am excited and was very greatful that the weather here was very nice, sunny with 61 degree weather. I am still working on my eatting and drinking habits but I am going to do this. :)

    We can do this. I have actually completed my first week but I am going to do one more day at week one that will be Friday!

    W1D2 complete - First week done :0)

    On my last 60 second running interval I ran for an extra minute. Yes it was downhill, but still...haha Set me up well for the longer intervals next week.

    Have a great weekend :0)

    I just did week 1 day 2 today, also! Congrats! Does anyone have an iphone app recommendation? I love runkeeper because it will tell you what your pace is every so often...I wonder if there is an app out there that will tell you when to run/walk and also tell you what pace each interval is. In other words, I want to run the "running interval" at a specific pace and I am not sure how to do that when running outdoors and not on a treadmill!
