    fyi... I have been doing this together since January... It is working out great. I am currently on day 3 level 3 of 30DS and tomorrow will be week 7 day 3 of the C25K program...

    It has really helped me to lose inches and run a heck of a lot further at one time... I absolutely love it!!! Good luck everyone!!! Hang in there, it is going to pay off!!!

    Couch to 5k (a running program to get you from doing nothing but sitting on the couch to running a 5k in 9 weeks)

    I've done C25K before and I started 30 day Shred yesterday. How do you do them together? Do you still do 30 day shred everyday and add in the 3 days of C25K? Or do you substitute 3 days of 30 day shred with 3 days of C25K?

    C25K is the couch potato to 5K plan. Google it and it has a 9 week program designed to take you from no running to your first 5K.

    Doing both of these already. I"ve been running for a while, but added 30DS for strength. I alternate running/30DS 4 days a week. Really need to get another cardio day on the elliptical...we'll see :)

    Doing well, thanks! Just waiting for the phone guy to come and go so I can get my workout started. I'll probably do a 3 mile walk after doing 30DS. Going to officially start C25K on Sunday. :)

    I guess I'll enter the conversation as a guy. Amanda, you suck, j/k, seriously good job. I did W4D2 of C25k today and had a hard time finishing the last run, but I weigh 100 pounds more than you. I'm thinking of doing Week 4 again next week to help me feel more comfortable with 16 min of running before the 20 min of running straight in Week 5. I have been doing Ripped in 30 on Tuesday & Thursday. When I do C25k, I've been trying to work in some strength training then (like this morning I did chest & tricep workouts). My wife has several of Jillian's workouts and as a guy I actually like them.
